Abstract:
This thesis explores urban poverty and the adaptations of the urban poor in the slums of the megacity of Dhaka, Bangladesh. It seeks to make a contribution to understanding and analysis of the phenomenon of rapid mass urbanisation in the Third World and its social consequences, the formation of huge urban slums and new forms of urban poverty. Its focus is the analysis of poverty which has been overwhelmingly dominated by economic approaches to the neglect of the social questions arising from poverty. This thesis approaches these social questions through an ???urban livelihood framework???, arg

Abstract:
Tourism is a branch of the service sector which can bring a substantial influx of foreign visitors to both developed and developing countries. Bangladesh is an example of a developing country which can become an important destination for international tourists with its unique attractions. To make tourism successful, Bangladesh has to take advantage of the opportunities for tourism development, using marketing and promotional activities. The purpose of this study is to analyse the issues and challenges of tourism marketing in Bangladesh, with a key objective being to evaluate the effectiveness

Abstract:
An efficient transport system is essential for an efficient supply chain to facilitate international trade. To utilise all cheaper resources, such as labour in Bangladesh, companies receive supplies from one coxintry (e.g. in Hong Kong), produce the products in another country, and sell them in other countries (e.g. European countries). Thus the production and consumption has turned into a global activity with transport filling the gaps among them. To perform the transport function a carrier may require the use of more than one mode, the so-called multimodal transport. Multimodal transport, an

Educational deprivation still tends to be seen as a primarily rural problem, especially in a historically rural economy such as Bangladesh's. Little is known about educational access and outcomes for the urban poor, what resources they need to use to get children admitted to school and keep them there, and what benefits they can expect to get in return.

Research Doctorate - Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)<br>The huge volume of research on labour turnover displays four features that are especially relevant to the present study: most studies use the individual employee as the unit of analysis; few focus on the organisation as the unit of analysis; most apply quantitative methods and only a few have employed qualitative methods; and most are conducted in Western and/or developed countries, with relatively few in developing countries. The current research project is therefore distinctive because it: focuses on the organisation as the unit of analysis;

Abstract:
The United Nations is an international organization that is committed to preserving international peace and security, developing friendly relations among nations, and promoting social process and human rights. To help control and resolve armed conflict, the United Nations established a technique called peacekeeping. A new global security dynamic began with the approval of the first UN peacekeeping mission, the UN Truce Supervision Organization (UNTSO) in 1948. From the beginning of the UN peacekeeping operations, member states of the UN have been contributing peacekeepers. With the end of the

Abstract:
Background: Neonatal mortality is a major burden in developing countries. Most neonatal deaths in Bangladesh can be prevented by simple interventions or by preventive measures before birth, better delivery practices or basic treatments after birth. Researchers over the years have focused on upgrading health care options to combat particular causes of disease but simple preventive measures before birth are often ignored. The outcome of neonatal illnesses depends on how it is managed and when. An illness that is addressed before the actual occurrence will have a better outcome especially when it

Abstract:
Food and water are at the heart of every community, form significant aspects of cultural identity, and must be in good supply for healthy and sustainable development. Not surprisingly, food and water feature directly as part of the recent UN sustainable development goals (SDGs) as Goal 2, Zero Hunger, and Goal 6, Clean Water and Sanitation. Household agriculture (HA) and rainwater storage systems (RSS) have grown in popularity in recent years and have the potential to increase yields and supplement household nutrition. Yet there is a significant lack of research into this potential. Domestic R

Abstract:
International development agencies and developed countries are demanding participatory good governance in local government bodies in developing countries to maximise outcomes from development plan implementations. To comply with this demand, the Government of Bangladesh introduced decentralisation, reforms and deregulation measures to use local government bodies to implement most development programs in rural areas with the engagement of local people. However, many researchers argue that there is little scope for the people to be effectively engaged in the affairs of Bangladesh local governmen
