Protecting children's futures in Bangladesh 

In recent decades, Bangladesh has made important strides in increasing primary school enrollment for students living in even the most marginalized communities.

Still, much of this progress is at risk. The pandemic, recent inflation, worsening climate disasters and the ongoing influx of Rohingya refugee families fleeing persecution in neighboring Myanmar have resulted in unprecedented learning loss for children across Bangladesh. Many young children risk never learning the foundational skills they need to thrive.
