Despite its challenging circumstances,
Bangladesh has proven to be remarkably resilient and
achieved significant human development gains. The country
partnership framework (CPF) will refocus the World Bank
Group’s (WBG’s) strategic direction on removing stubborn
impediments to job creation and growth. The CPF will build
on a well-performing portfolio, particularly in human
development, identified by the systematic country diagnostic
(SCD) as foundational priorities which are important
prerequisites to sustained growth. Engagements from the
previous strategy that promote inclusive growth - notably in
health, education, and social protection, as well as in
revenue mobilization, financial sector support, and the
business environment - will continue. The CPF will also give
greater prominence to policy reforms and make policy
dialogue an integral building block in the country program.
The CPF considers three selectivity criteria: (i)
consistency with the government’s seventh five year plan to
ensure strong country ownership; (ii) alignment with policy
priorities identified in the SCD, in particular the five
transformational priorities to achieve the greatest impact
on poverty reduction and shared prosperity; and (iii) the
WBG comparative advantage, taking into account the knowledge
and financing support provided by other development
partners. The activities in the CPF are structured around
three focus areas consistent with the South Asia regional
strategy - growth, social inclusion, and climate and
environmental management.
