The lowest crop diversity index (CDI) was reported (0.111) in Mithamoin of Kishoreganj followed by 0.114 at Khaliajuri in Netrokona. The highest value of CDI was observed 0.933 at Dewanganj in Jamalpur followed by 0.920 at Bhairab in Kishoreganj. The range of cropping intensity values was recorded 101-249%.

    Development Initiative Through Partnership Evaluation of Governance and Linkage (In Context of NNP)

    Development Initiative through Partnership Evaluation of Governance and Linkage (In context of NNP) A Dissertation By Md. Helal Uddin Submitted to the Development Studies Program, BRAC University In partial fulfillment of the requirement for the Degree of Master of Development Studies September 2007 Development Initiative through Partnership Evaluation of Governance and Linkage (In context of NNP) A Dissertation By Md. Helal Uddin ID 06162004 Approved by: Supervisor Dr. Ferdous Jahan Academic -coordinator Development Studies Program BRAC University and Associate Professor Department of Public Administration University of Dhaka. — DrTlmran Matin Development Studies Program BRAC University Abstract In Development arena Public-Private partnership is a much-talked issue all over the world. Many countries have experience about this, i.e. Canadian Rural Partnership, Japan's new development for Trade, Microsoft and The U.S Government Agencies initiative to promote international development etc. Previously Development was solely the responsibility of the government. But time and need changed the scenario. Poverty stricken and disaster prone areas demand more initiative over and above government initiatives. That emerges the need for NGOs in development activities. For the betterment of the destitute and the helpless, the untended population of the society, the role of Non Governmental Organization or NGO is much acknowledged. It is proven that the active presences of NGOs are a boon for the overall and social development of Bangladesh and they have earned much credibility from international organizations/ donors. In Bangladesh GO-NGO partnership is being carried out in the field of Health, Education, Public- Health and Local Governments etc. There is probably no systematic study on the issue whether the partnership program is more effective in development initiative or not.

The nature or pattern of crime has changed remarkably with the advent of globalization, modern technology and various modern devices, which pose serious security threats to the individuals, society and the country. Globalization has created easy access to conducting illegal trade such as small arms, illegal drugs and human trafficking and some violent activities such as kidnapping, theft, murder, around the world as well as in Bangladesh. It has developed the new trends of crimes, gun violence, drugs crime, and increasing number of juvenile convicts and heinous crimes committed in Bangladesh.
