About Sustainable Graduation
Under the visionary leadership of the Honourable Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, Bangladesh has made remarkable progress in various socio-economic parameters in recent years. In line with that progress, the country met all the criteria for graduating from the Least Developed Country status, for the first time, back in 2018.
About SSGP
Meeting the graduation criteria is certainly one of the biggest milestones in our development journey. Graduation will bring new development paradigm and opportunities. Therefore, to make this achievement sustainable— a range of policies, strategies, and programs have been initiated to prepare for this elevation. As part of this, ERD has undertaken a project titled “Support to Sustainable Graduation Project” to identify the impacts of graduation as well as to promulgate this historic achievement at home and abroad by producing various research papers and publications related to graduation for brightening the image of the country. The project would also provide necessary capacity-building supports and other necessary supports to the relevant ministries.
