Established in 2022, the Bangladesh NCD Poverty Commission examined the burden of non-communicable diseases among vulnerable populations and generated evidence-based recommendations to strengthen prevention, management, and Universal Health Coverage (UHC). The commission worked closely with national and international experts to guide future health policy.
This research assessed whether nutrition support combined with parenting education could improve children's cognitive development and communication skills. The project focused on early childhood interventions that promote healthy growth and long-term developmental outcomes among vulnerable families.
The baseline survey explored the implementation of technology-enabled learning environments across experimental schools. The study analysed classroom practices, curriculum delivery, stakeholder engagement, and learning outcomes to generate evidence for future education interventions.
This nationwide assessment examined the prevalence, risk factors, disease patterns and policy environment surrounding non-communicable diseases among children and adolescents in Bangladesh. The findings provide evidence to support national planning, strengthen prevention strategies and improve child and adolescent health services.
This project developed a comprehensive monitoring and evaluation framework for mental health services in selected districts.
