The Dhaka Forum

The Dhaka Forum is a non-profit, non-partisan and non- political platform consisting of a cross section of concerned and like-minded citizens amongst scholars and practitioners in the fields of administration, social, economic and sustainable development.


Vision

Bangladesh is now at a cross road. Despite natural and manmade disasters, failure of governance, lack of proper political leadership, the country has shown remarkable resilience in socioeconomic fields. The potential of the people has not been fully realized. It is time to face the challenges upfront, invigorate serious and positive discussion among concerned and likeminded citizens for bringing positive changes in the country.


Mission
