Abstract:
Weak governance has been identified by CARE Bangladesh as an underlying cause of poverty
and marginalisation in all four impact statements. Furthermore, it is seen as a domain of change
in CARE Bangladesh's pathways of change for achieving impact in the lives of the poorest and
the most marginalised.
CARE-Bangladesh is implementing Building Pro-poor, Inclusive and Gender Sensitive Local
Governance Project to contribute towards building participatory, inclusive, pro-poor and gender
sensitive governance in Gaibandha and Lalmonirhat Districts. At the same time, Social and
Economic Transformation of the Ultra-Poor (SETU), a Government of Bangladesh and UKaid
partnership project, which is funded by eep/shiree, is being implemented in Rangpur,
Nilphamari, Lalmonirhat and Gaibandha districts of Bangladesh.
