The website provides information on arsenic contamination in Bangladesh and other countries in the world, social problems and health effect of arsenic, and efforts for its prevention and remedy.

GARG, Sweden is involved in research on hydro-geochemistry of the high-arsenic groundwaters, together with sediment geochemistry to enhance the understanding of thegeochemical processes at the sediment-water interface responsible for arsenic mobilisation in the sedimentary aquifers. This web site contains information and publications on different studies on geochemistry of arsenic and low-cost arsenic removal technologies.

This web site of UNICEF provides information on arsenic problem in Bangladesh.

This website provides information on activities of NGO Forum related in arsenic mitigation in Bangladesh.
