Institutionalizing Gender Equality The Experience of the Bangladesh Resident Mission
Asian Development Bank | June 2009
Abstract
The Asian Development Bank (ADB) has helped advance gender equality and development over the
past 10 years across Asia and the Pacific. It is increasingly recognized that adding gender specialists
to the staff of selected resident missions (including in Bangladesh) results in more projects tackling
gender issues and strengthens the capacity of executing agency staff to bridge gender disparities.
The report shows how gender has been integrated successfully into some aspects of Bangladesh
policies, strategies, and programming. It also shows what challenges remain. The report aims to
identify the success factors that ADB might replicate or strengthen elsewhere.
