For copies/update on the Monitoring Report please contact: DG, FPMU – Khaddya Bhaban, 16 Abdul Ghani Road, Dhaka -1000; [email protected] Printed by Dynamic Printers, 53/1 Arambagh, Dhaka-1000, Phone : 7192771, E-mail : [email protected] Foreword The Government of Bangladesh is committed to achieve food and nutrition security for all citizens, especially the most vulnerable. The Government adopted a comprehensive National Food Policy (NFP, 2006), aiming to enhance food availability, access and utilisation through interventions detailed in the Plan of Action (PoA, 2008-2015) and investments specified in the multi-billion dollar Country Investment Plan (CIP, 2011-2015) consistently with the Sixth Five Year Plan, the Vision 2021 and the Millennium Development Goals. The NFP, PoA and CIP articulate measurable results and required resources up to 2015. Achievements so far were internationally recognized in May 2013, when FAO awarded Bangladesh in recognition of its “notable and outstanding progress in fighting hunger”. This report is the third in the series that monitors implementation of the PoA and CIP, and tracks progress towards the NFP goal. Production of the report was led by the Food Planning and Monitoring Unit of the Ministry of Food, in collaboration with 17 partner Ministries/ Divisions, and with technical assistance from FAO and financial support from EU and USAID, under the National Food Policy Capacity Strengthening Programme. The report drew on 32 inter-ministerial meetings; drafts were reviewed by the inter-ministerial Food Policy Working Group (FPWG), a stakeholder workshop composed of the Government, development partners, private sector and civil society; and it was discussed and endorsed by the National Committee. The Monitoring Report 2013 shows that the high recognition accorded to food and nutrition security at the highest levels of the Government and amongst development partners continues to pay substantial dividends for the well-being of Bangladeshi people. The CIP budget is now at 9.8 billion USD, of which 6.2 billion USD is already financed; 3.3 billion USD was mobilized since the CIP was launched in 2010 of which 1.7 billion USD was in fiscal year 2011/12. The Government financed 3.9 billion USD (62%) and development partners 2.3 billion USD (38%). As funding con tinues growing, the challenge is to use it timely and effectively. At the same time, the report is realistic to the situation in Bangladesh and urges for concerted efforts to do better. Rice production has intensified making the country self- sufficient, purchasing power has increased, people are consuming a broader range of foods, and exclusive breastfeeding has dramatically increased. Mixed signals exist on the NFP’s undernourishment goal; food availability needs to be more diversified, resilient and sustainable; food access needs to be broadened and stabilised; and progress on utilisation needs to be radically accelerated because despite much progress to date, regrettably still two-in-five children are stunted. The Government has taken major steps to address these challenges, including rebalancing fertilizer subsidies, greater efforts to mainstream nutrition across sectors to Scaling Up Nutrition; drafting a National Food Safety Act and scaling up investments for emergency foodgrain storage. Much has been done, as identified in the report, and much more needs to be done, as also identified in the report. With this in mind, I am confident that this Report will inform and guide more robust actions, ideas and energies towards food and nutritrition securitysecurity in Bangladesh.Banglad Dhaka, 9 June 2013 Dr. Mohammadammad AAbdurbdur RRazzaque,azzaque, MMP Minister Ministry of Food i Table of contents Foreword ............................................................................................................................................ i Acronyms .......................................................................................................................................... iv ExecuƟve summary ........................................................................................................................... ix 1.

    THE NATURE AND EXTENT OF HOMICIDE IN BANGLADESH: A CONTENT ANALYSIS ON REPORTS OF MURDER IN DAILY NEWSPAPERS T. M. Abdullah-Al-Fuad June 2016 Department of Sociology University of Dhaka Dhaka University Institutional Repository THE NATURE AND EXTENT OF HOMICIDE IN BANGLADESH: A CONTENT ANALYSIS ON REPORTS OF MURDER IN DAILY NEWSPAPERS T. M. Abdullah-Al-Fuad Reg no. 111 Session: 2011-2012 Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Master of Philosophy June 2016 Department of Sociology University of Dhaka Dhaka University Institutional Repository DEDICATION To my parents and sister Dhaka University Institutional Repository Abstract As homicide is one of the most comparable and accurate indicators for measuring violence, the aim of this study is to improve understanding of criminal violence by providing a wealth of information about where homicide occurs and what is the current nature and trend, what are the socio-demographic characteristics of homicide offender and its victim, about who is most at risk, why they are at risk, what are the relationship between victim and offender and exactly how their lives are taken from them. Additionally, homicide patterns over time shed light on regional differences, especially when looking at long-term trends. The connection between violence, security and development, within the broader context of the rule of law, is an important factor to be considered. Since its impact goes beyond the loss of human life and can create a climate of fear and uncertainty, intentional homicide (and violent crime) is a threat to the population. Homicide data can therefore play an important role in monitoring security and justice.

  • Inventory of LGED Road Network, March 2005, Bangladesh
    The Chief Engineer Local Government Engineering Department PREFACE It is a matter of satisfaction that LGED Road Database has been published through compilation of data that represent all relevant information of rural road network of the country in a structured manner. The Rural Infrastructure Maintenance Management Unit of LGED (former Rural Infrastructure Maintenance Cell) took up the initiative to create a road inventory database in mid nineties to register all of its road assets country-wide with the help of customized software called, Road and Structure Database Management System. The said database was designed to accommodate all relevant information on the road network sequentially and the system was upgraded from time to time to cater the growing needs. In general, the purpose of this database is to use it in planning and management of LGED's rural road network by providing detailed information on roads and structures. In particular, from maintenance point of view this helps to draw up comprehensive maintenance program including rational allocation of fund based on various parameters and physical condition of the road network. According to recent road re-classification, LGED is responsible for construction, development and maintenance of three classes of roads, which has been named as Upazila Road, Union Road and Village Road (category A & B) in association with Local Government Institution. The basic information about these roads like, road name, road type, length, surface type, condition, structure number with span, existing gaps with length, etc. has been made available in the road inventory. Side by side, corresponding spatial data are also provided in the road map comprising this document.
