Bangladesh, the eighth most populous country in the world, is continually ravaged by natural disasters such as cyclones, floods, droughts and earthquakes. The limited resources available in the country are often diverted to respond to these disasters as opposed to being used for longer-term investments in education and health.
Bangladesh has been striving hard to improve the quality of its education. Progress has been slow, but more and more children are attending school each year. However, the quality of materials and instruction are often inadequate to meet the needs of the 21st century.
Catholic Relief Services focuses on improving the quality of education and responding to the recurring emergencies in Bangladesh.
