Research on the effectiveness of content policy planning and impact analysis: A look into the center of brac

Abstract

From the inception of BRAC, its sole vision was to empower the poor communities of Bangladesh through providing them with feasible and sustainable options of entrepreneurship via microcredit loan financing and capacity building in these communities to self-sustain for the long run. BRAC International has also similar goals as the visions aspired after here. Overall, the missions and visions of BRAC worldwide lay at the core of a principle that is to help the poor communities rise up the social ladder slowly, self-sustainably and all the while realizing their potentials which can never go to waste if utilized proactively. BRAC realizes that every individual has potential within and the organization takes it upon themselves to move the poorest community otherwise termed as “Ultra Poor” to move beyond situations of extreme poverty and get training from BRAC to become knowledgeable, self-dependent, basic technical skills necessary to attain self-sufficient small businesses, and the most important training as of yet is to impose leadership training and molding these individuals in such a way so that they can further implement their skills and knowledge to improve the total living standard of themselves, their children and all in all the entire community. The Ultra-poor graduation program is such an intervention that gives these people the basic introduction on how to combine livelihoods asset transfer and find access to financial services, utilize the opportunities to entrepreneurial missions which will be sustainable in the long run, helping them work on self-reliance and ultimately leading to a better future free from the strikes of hunger and poverty. The programs are also designed in such a way as to support continued access to capital generation via high amounts of asset transfer, developing business insights as well as train them specifically on topics such as savings and easily communicable financial basic knowledge.
