Translating National Youth Policy into action plan: Counting young people’s perspectives

The dialogue was co-chaired by Farah Kabir, country director of ActionAid Bangladesh, along with Reaz Ahmad, executive editor of Dhaka Tribune and moderated by ActionAid Bangladesh Manager Nazmul Ahsan. Through these programs, we plan on touching upon the youth leadership and their participation in the decision-making process related to development, young people’s quality of life and work environment, and technical and vocational education. This dialogue, in particular, focused on whether the perspective of the young people of Bangladesh is being incorporated into the national youth policy action plan effectively, and what can be done to make this necessary improvement.
