9. Education & Girls being the Change Agent....
Most dramatic thing that happened to Bangladesh has to do with
transforming the status of women, starting with the poorest women and
as Bangladesh educated and empowered its girls, those educated women
became pillars of Bangladesh’s economy.
- Nicholas Donabet Kristof
What can Biden’s
plan do for
poverty? Look to
Bangladesh.
-NYT

10. Why is this positive deviance?
• Change in societal attitude towards women and their
development – a mindset change
• Goodbye to fundamentalist ideas
• Constitutional obligations
Above all,
• Visionary leadership of HPM Sheikh Hasina
“Surprising
Progress”
“Hopelessness”
Investing in most
marginalized

 Berthed into ‘developing country’ status
 “Biden should look to Bangladesh for America’s poverty”
 “One of the great mysteries of global health”
 At the forefront of climate change

15. Female Secondary Stipend and Assistance Program (FSSAP)
Impact:
• FSSAP was successful in delaying marriage,
• increasing the probability of self-employment and nonfarm employment among
employed women,
• and increasing the probability of marrying men who are more educated and
employed more in the nonfarm sector than those married to the control group
women.
• The program was also successful in enhancing contraceptive use,
• reducing fertility, and increasing preference for daughters
Started in 1994 The objectives of the FSSAP program were to
(i) increase school enrollment among secondary-schooled girls,
(ii) improve the secondary schooling completion rate for girls, and
(iii) delay age at marriage for females.

16. Secondary school enrollment among girls has
increased markedly in recent years. Aggregate
statistics suggest that girls’ school enrollment has
increased at a rate of 13% per year since 1994, while
the rate for boys has only been 2.5% per year.
Consequently, among the total enrollees, girls’ share
exceeded boys’
women’s age at first marriage
has risen by a full year since FSSAP
was introduced (Figure 2). This means
that the program was well targeted
and it achieved its stated goals

Achieving SDG 4 by 2030 and Implications for the Harmonized Stipend Program
All government schools and madrasah excluding students in registered non-government schools and madrasah, NFE and private schools.
The table shows us that according to the government data for 2015-2016: Out of 3.8m who entered grade 1, a total of 3.6m were promoted from grade 1; 2.8m graduated from grade 5; 2.5m entered
grade 6; and only 1.1m of students graduate from grade 10. This data is only for government general secondary schools and madrasah.
• However, only 31.5% of grades 6-12 received stipend in 2015

22.  Only 17 % of secondary school students in stipend
coverage
 The coverage and the transfer amount are low.
Challenge and Strategic Plan for future
 To raise the coverage of stipends to 50 per cent of
the Secondary & Higher Secondary school
students
 To increase the stipend amount.
