Strategy

Under the Bangladesh country partnership strategy (CPS), 2011–2015, ADB will encourage more harmonized sector and project assistance approaches in line with the Bangladesh Joint Cooperation Strategy, 2010–2015.

The CPS, 2011-2015, emphasizes the need to design projects that are better prepared for implementation. This means projects that are simpler, taking into consideration capacity constraints, and including covenants that are realistic, focused, and properly sequenced.

Under the country operations business plan, 2013–2015, the thrust of assistance will be to:

  • enhance connectivity underpinning the development of economic corridors to support industry, trade, and regional cooperation;
  • promote energy security and energy efficiency to augment power supply in Bangladesh, as well as support reform to cut power utilities’ losses;
  • help meet the Millennium Development Goals through interventions in water supply and sanitation that ensure better health and environment to underpin higher productivity and investment;
  • strengthen secondary education and skills development to ensure better-equipped human resources;
  • address climate change through mitigation and adaptation investments;
  • manage disaster risk; and
  • support upstream reforms to promote private investment and infrastructure financing.

The Public Communications Policy (PCP) recognizes that transparency and accountability are essential to development effectiveness. It establishes the disclosure requirements for documents and information ADB produces or requires to be produced.

The Accountability Mechanism provides a forum where people adversely affected by ADB-assisted projects can voice and seek solutions to their problems and report alleged noncompliance of ADB's operational policies and procedures.
