The 58-square-metre, low-rise building will provide five indoor showers, four outdoor showers, wash-down facilities and four toilet cubicles as well as wash-hand basins and storage and equipment space. No works to the beach, dunes or inter-tidal zone will be required as the building will be built within an existing council-owned public car park.
The Kuakata Training Center, designed by CODEC Design Studio, is a purpose-built facility supporting skill development and capacity building for coastal communities in Bangladesh. Positioned close to fishing settlements, ecological zones, and tourist routes, it offers residential training on coastal resource management, sustainable tourism, and disaster preparedness. Developed through a phased construction process, the project emphasizes quality, sustainability, and contextual relevance. Local contractors and laborers were engaged from the outset, ensuring not only construction efficiency but also skill transfer and community ownership of the center.
