To ensure the sustainability of the outcome, an associated technical assistance is proposed to assist the government in updating its master plan for roads and improving its planning capacity. Project Rationale and Bangladesh reached lower middle-income status in July 2015. With its young and rapidly growing Linkage to Country/Regional population, Bangladesh has the potential to become a major exporter of labor-intensive products. Its Strategy location between South and Southeast Asia provides the country good prospects of becoming a regional trading hub. But the country's transport infrastructure is inadequate, which raises costs, reduces competitiveness, and impedes intra-regional trade.

  • Aquatic Ecology and Dangerous Substances: Bangladesh Perspective
    Diffuse Pollution Conference Dublin 2003 8C Ecology: AQUATIC ECOLOGY AND DANGEROUS SUBSTANCES: BANGLADESH PERSPECTIVE Institute for Environment and Development Studies 5/12-15, Eastern view (5th floor), 50, D.I.T Extension Road, Dhaka -1000, Bangladesh. E-mail: [email protected] ; Phone: +880 2 9354128 ; Fax: +880 2 8315394 Bangladesh had always been predominantly and agricultural based country and in early days pollution was never even felt in this region. Since early sixties, of necessity, industries of various kinds started to spring up slowly. It appears in a survey that ecological imbalance is being caused continuously due to discharge of various industrial wastes into air and water bodies. It has also been found that the intensity of pollution caused by the factories and industrial units depend on their type, location, raw materials, chemical effects, production process and discharge of gaseous, liquid and solid pollutants to the natural environment. All of Bangladesh's sewage and industrial wastes are flushed directly into Ganges and Brahmaputra Rivers. There are wide spread fears that as the region develops in industrial infrastructure, industrial pollution will accelerate, compounding the problems posed by raw municipal wastes. About 900 polluting industries in Bangladesh dispose of untreated industrial wastes directly into rivers, although the effluents contain 10 to 100 times the allowable levels permissible for human health. The Ganges-Brahmaputra delta is the largest delta in the world and the rivers contribute one-third of the global sediment transport to the world oceans. The rivers flow through 10 per cent global population and carry untreated rural, urban, municipal and industrial wastes to the Bay of Bengal.

  • Evaluation of Netherlands-Funded Ngos in Bangladesh
    Evaluation of Netherlands-funded NGOs in Bangladesh Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Policy and Operations Evaluation Department (IOB) ISBN 90-5328-163-0 Photographs: Ron Giling/LINEAIR Maps and figures: Geografiek, Amsterdam Pre-press services: Transcripta, Beerzerveld Printed by: Ridderprint BV, Ridderkerk Preface The evaluation of Netherlands supported NGOs in Bangladesh forms part of a study undertaken by the Policy and Operations Evaluation Department (IOB) on the Netherlands bi-lateral aid programme for Bangladesh in the period 1972–96. The support to NGOs through the regular aid programme and through the Co-financing Programme has been important to the Netherlands’ pursuance of poverty alleviation objectives in Bangladesh. A total of Dfl. .247 million has been disbursed through these channels, some three quarters of which after 1990. The position of NGOs in Bangladeshi society is quite unique. Bangladesh is home to the largest national NGOs in the world, as well as to a multitude of middle- and small-sized NGOs that operate on a national, regional or local level. The Bangladeshi NGOs literally reach out to millions of people in both rural and urban areas. This study comprises extensive case studies of a cross section of NGOs in Bangladesh. Both the Bangladeshi NGOs that were subject of study and their partners in the Netherlands, Bilance (formerly Cebemo), ICCO and Novib, have been closely involved in the various stages of the study. The study has concentrated on the credit and training activities that constitute the mainstay of NGO programmes. It is concluded that these activities effectively target the poorer sections of the population, particularly women.
