Dhaka, Bangladesh · 224 people · Megacity

The Dhaka South City Corporation sponsors national football clubs, hosts vibrant traditional rickshaw paint festivals, and builds automated software parks for the apparel industry.

The record Dhaka keeps on the Board of Mayors is still unwritten. Take office and write its opening chapter.

The city

Landmark: Lalbagh Fort & Ahsan Manzil.

• The city holds annual Rickshaw Art Parades, providing cash grants and recognition to traditional painters to preserve folk heritage.
• Dhaka’s apparel tech incubators invented dynamic fabrics with built in heat insulation to protect workers in changing monsoon climates.

How a term works

Take office and each day brings a live situation from the city's services: a decision to make and a result that is measured. A term is judged on approval, infrastructure, environment and innovation, within the city's budget, and every term adds to the record Dhaka keeps on the Board of Mayors. Mayors message and confer with one another, form councils, trade with neighbouring cities and send aid where it is needed. Cities rise together.
