6. Key challenges
• Inadequate land for production of food
• High population density
• Growing population
• Just 1 in 6 women are employed in non- agricultural sector
• Protein and micronutrient deficiency cause maternal and
child malnutrition
• Inadequate health resources in rural areas
7. Moving towards SDGs
• Upon the experience based on MDG, the world had made
significant development to meet the goals, and now
countries like Bangladesh has now made amendable
progress.
• However according to UN 8 goals of MDG have overlooked
the root causes of proverty, genter inequality or the urgency
of holistic nature of development. So the new development
goal is proposed in the name of SDGs.

9. Bangladesh and SDGs
Bangladesh had chance to reflect her achievements and
failures in post 2015 based on MDG goals framework.
Therefore the GOB has proposed a 7 year plan based on
SDGs while adapting and shaping the goals of SDGs
according to their needs.
It contains 11 goals, 58 targets and 241 indicators based on the
goals of SDGs. Later UNDG suggested 3 more goals to be
added.
10. Bangladesh and SDGs
• As the goals, targets and indicators of the SDGs are well
taken care of in the formulation process of the 7th FYP of
Bangladesh, it can be said that the country will be an 'early
starter' in the implementation process of the SDGs.
• It has came in effect from January 2016.
