description This research checks the feasibility of developing a pond-based rainwater collecting system in Joypurhat, Bangladesh, as a solution to water constraints and to promote sustainable water management practices. The study investigates a variety of topics, including hydrological conditions, socioeconomic factors, current water management techniques, technical concerns, policy assistance, community engagement, and monitoring and evaluation procedures. The key findings show that pond water levels are declining and groundwater supplies are under increasing pressure as a result of variables such as population growth and climate change. Community involvement is believed critical to the success of water harvesting operations. Pond size, location, and sedimentation management have all been identified as important factors influencing system effectiveness. From the respondents, the study found several ideas of policy assistance, capacity building, and strong monitoring procedures are proposed to enhance the resilience and sustainability of pond-based water harvesting systems. The study emphasizes the relevance of integrated water management practices and their potential to address water scarcity, boost agriculture, and promote environmental sustainability in Joypurhat, Bangladesh. This research is a gateway to the large number of abandoned ponds in Bangladesh which again can be restored and used effectively.
