AB  - Green space in Dhaka city is reducing day by day and affecting urban eco-systems producing multidimensional socio economic, cultural and environmental problems. In this scenario, we argue that vertical garden could be a way to mitigate these urban problems. Though vertical gardening is not a new concept in Bangladesh, it has emerged recently because of its diverse uses like reducing the hostile ecological effect of the buildings and greenhouse gas emission, air purification, regulating the temperature and rainfall runoff, providing food and wildlife habitat, as well as creating employment and recreational opportunities. Therefore, the study aims to evaluate the practices of vertical gardening contributing to eco-sustainability and disaster risk reduction in the context of the Dhaka city. Following qualitative approach, the study performed in-depth interviews, participant observation and visual documentation as data collection tools in order to understand contemporary practices and types of vertical gardening, and ecosystem services produced by vertical garden. This study attempts to review the major opportunities and challenges of vertical gardening, through the framework of eco-system services and urban resilience.
