Population movement and the Chittagong Hill Tracts development programme

GDPC
May 12, 2014

In 1999 the Bangladesh Red Crescent Society (BDRCS) decided to use the “Better Programming Initiative” (BPI), the conflict-sensitive approach to programming adopted by the International Federation in 1998, to plan a new Chittagong Hill Tracts development programme. BPI would help to identify how to use assistance to increase local communities’ capacities to work together and promote long-term recovery and reconciliation. In 2004, interviews, community meetings, workshops and a questionnaire survey were carried out to analyse the impact of using BPI. Published in 2004.
