Abstract:

This thesis explores the factors affecting the aspirations for, and the perceptions of acceptability and feasibility of business-ownership as an economic/career option by middle-income, educated urban women in Bangladesh. In response to the world-wide growth of women's entrepreneurship, there has been increased attention given to women's businesses, both from a practical development perspective and a research point of view. The group of women who has attracted researchers attention in the developed economies is educated, with access to resources and contact networks and therefore in principle,

This thesis places respectable femininity at the centre of the construction and performance of new womanhood among affluent middle-class women of Dhaka, Bangladesh. Using qualitative research methods, combining audio-visual materials, focus group discussion and multiple in depth interviews, I examine the complex and heterogeneous constructions of new womenhoods in relation to women’s negotiations with public and private sphere roles and Bangladeshi norms of female propriety. My conceptual framework facilitates analysis of the everyday interactional negotiations of new women in relation to thei

Abstract:

Rural development is a serious problem in Bangladesh, and so is the situation of women. This thesis assesses the programmes offered by a particular non-governmental organization, the Bangladesh Rural Advancement Committee (BRAC), which simultaneously promote rural development and improve the status of women. This assessment is achieved by examining the functioning and impact of these programmes in a single village. The study is exploratory and uses qualitative methods, employing principally unstructured but in-depth interviews. Results indicate that most village women were aware of the need fo

Abstract:

Background: Ensuring that all women have access to emergency obstetric care (EmOC) in the event of a complication is vital. One well-accepted conceptual model suggests that the three main areas of delay facing women in accessing EmOC are: (1) deciding to seek care; (2) reaching an appropriate health facility; and (3) receiving treatment once at a health facility. This study explores whether poorer women are disadvantaged in receiving treatment once at a health facility. Methods: The mixed-method study is based in a large teaching hospital in Bangladesh.

Abstract:

The Bangladesh ready-made garments (RMG) sector is well known for offering comparatively low labour prices to world-renowned retailers. However, structural safety problems, like fires, building collapses, and workplace accidents, are endemic. Furthermore, poor working conditions, like low wages, lack of proper facilities for medical care, day care, and transport, lack of safety and regulatory measures, and gender wage disparities, compromise workers’ living standards. These are the challenges that must be addressed to ensure safe and improved working conditions in the sector. This research see

Low income countries such as Bangladesh are among many of the developing countries in the world where people suffer from poverty which affect their living conditions, especially the empowerment, more specifically economic empowerment of rural and/or indigent women. Many actors such as non-government organizations (NGOs) aspire towards working on means which will improve the empowerment status of rural women in the economy of Bangladesh.

Abstract:

Gender empowerment is an oft-cited result of microfinance participation. However, research to verify this outcome continues to produce ambivalent results implying that microfinance programs are not maximizing their potential impact. While gender empowerment may be a desirable end to development, it is less often used as a means to achieve development goals. This paper tests the hypothesis that gender empowerment improves microfinance program performance using data from the Bangladesh Rural Advancement Committee (BRAC) and a theoretical framework based on prevalent institutional ideologies.

Abstract:

Entrepreneurship today has become an important professional skill to reduce poverty among rural women in Bangladesh. Recent studies show that most rural women borrowers claim that their sustainable socio-economic development depends on current ‘micro credit policy’. However, most women entrepreneurs’ practical situation is still vulnerable and unproductive, especially in rural Bangladesh. Usually, when a woman runs an enterprise solely, after a certain period, if she is unsuccessful, that micro credit turns into a burden for her. The study proposes to critique micro credit policy, because the

Since the nineteenth century, social exclusion and inclusion have been prominent concepts in policy debates across Europe. This thesis discusses the fact that poverty and social exclusion are often seen as closely related, overlapping or even indistinguishable in the existing literature. Thus there are no uncontested definitions of poverty, social exclusion and inclusion, and these concepts remain the subject of definitional disagreements among intellectuals. This research has tried to bring out these concepts in a gender perspective on Bangladesh as a developing country, examining indigenous

Abstract:

The microcredit program in Bangladesh is a unique innovation of credit delivery designed to enhance the income generating activities of the poor. Its uniqueness is reflected in its collateral-free group-based lending strategy. The program extends small loans to poor people, mainly women, for self-employment activities thus allowing clients to achieve a better quality of life.
