Economic Dialogue on Inclusive Growth in Bangladesh.

Descriptions

Bangladesh has made remarkable progress over the past two decades, lifting millions out of poverty and sustaining expanding levels of economic growth. It has achieved this in spite of major internal and external challenges — global economic downturns, natural disasters and periods of political uncertainty — which have tested the resolve of the Bangladesh economy. To increase the dialogue on economic reforms, and support the Government of Bangladesh to make pro-poor economic policies, DFID will invest in research/evaluation where clear gaps in evidence have been identified and develop partnerships with those with proven ability to influence economic policy and respond to selective requests from GoB to help implement economic reforms. As part of the Strengthening Economic Systems in Bangladesh Programme, DFID — Bangladesh would like to commission a programme of economic dialogue on Inclusive Growth. DFID-Bangladesh would like to commission a programme of research, outreach and dissemination on Inclusive Growth that embodies both short-term policy dialogues as well as longer term thematic policy relevant research. The contract will be issued for 3 years. Suppliers are invited to complete a pre-qualification questionnaire and, where appropriate, a minimum of 5 and a maximum of 8 suppliers will then be invited to the second stage.
