Title of Proposed Project: Good Governance Program
Request for Expressions of Interest
The Asian Development Bank (ADB) is assisting the Government of Bangladesh to implement a set of policy reforms packaged under the Good Governance Program. The objectives of the Program are to - strengthen the ongoing consensus building on good governance, integrity, and anticorruption reforms;
- support judicial reforms with a focus on the transparency and accountability of the judiciary;
- strengthen the role and reach of the Anticorruption Commission so that it can better fight corruption; and
- bring good governance and anticorruption initiatives into the mainstream within selected sectoral level agencies to enhance their effectiveness.
There are two executing agencies (EAs) for the Program: the Supreme Court will be the EA for the program focus on strengthening the judiciary while the Cabinet Division will be the EA for all other activities.
The policy program is supported by a technical assistance grant from ADB and Danish International Development Assistance (DANIDA) that will support Government to enhance the capability of relevant agencies to implement the policy reforms, and to more effectively manage the Program.
The Good Governance Program, which will be implemented over a period of four years, is looking for three individuals (Bangladeshi nationals) to help manage the Program. Download the detailed terms of reference.
Further information on the details of the Program is available from the ADB website. Applications are invited from interested individuals by 31 October 2007; please send in an updated CV, along with a statement on how you meet the requirements and the names and contact information of two referees who are familiar with your professional capabilities.
