| Summary: | Bangladesh is recognized globally for
its achievements and potential, despite a number of
difficult challenges. Given the sustained economic growth
over the last three decades, Bangladesh is identified as one
of the next eleven emerging economies in the world. The
country is at a crossroads given its educational development
and economic growth pattern. This report includes a series
of three policy notes on access and equity, education
quality, and skills development. They aim to support, over
the medium term, a coherent and articulated policy dialogue
on education and skills development that will help
Bangladesh achieve its target of becoming a middle-income
country. The three policy notes, which are a culmination of
work over the last 18 months, were guided by two principles:
(i) to provide just-in-time analysis and policy directions
on topics of greatest interest to policy makers, civil
society, think tanks, development partners, and researchers
in Bangladesh; and (ii) to undertake this work in a
collaborative manner, seeking guidance from a panel of
advisors early in the process of preparation of these policy notes. |
