The project aims to improve the condition of women in Bangladesh through
strengthening institutional capacities for research and analysis on
topics of relevance to women's issues in Bangladesh as well as contributing
to supporting Dhaka University so it may become more responsive to
the needs of those working in sustainable development for women in
Bangladesh. There are two US partners - Virginia Tech and UCDavis.
Faculty from these two institutions are working to support faculty
at Dhaka University to attain these goals through developing courses
and carrying out research projects. Geography faculty at UCDavis and
Dhaka University are developing a Gender Atlas of Bangladesh.
