Arising from its longstanding wish to expand and deepen its interventions in rural and underserved communities, FASUL has finally established a research department. The research department will undertake research on the several projects undertaken by FASUL since its foundation in 2005 in the three thematic areas, Water and Sanitation, Education and Health. As a result of this and to further the growth of the department, a research and business development officer was appointed as the foundation head of the research department beginning in July 2022.
