The current document outlines the Decent Work Country Programme for Bangladesh for the period 2012-2015. It is the result of an intensive consultation process with ILO’s tripartite constituents namely government, employers’ and workers’ organizations and other stakeholders. It is based on a thorough analysis of the country’s needs and is in full alignment with Bangladesh Vision 2021, the Sixth Five Year Plan (SFYP, 2011-15), the UN Development Framework (UNDAF, 2012-16) and ILO’s Strategic Policy Framework 2010-15. As part of the long and participatory process, the key priority areas were adopted by the constituents during a tripartite workshop held in Dhaka on 13 December 2011.
