This study on Bangladesh Dhaka-improving
living conditions for the urban poor reflects a
comprehensive look at poverty in Dhaka with an aim to
provide the basis for an urban poverty reduction strategy
for the Government of Bangladesh, local authorities, donors,
and NGOs. While the needs in Dhaka are enormous, this study
focuses on analyzing those critical for the poor -
understanding the characteristics and dynamics of poverty,
issues of employment, land and housing, basic services, and
crime and violence. This analysis will provide a platform
for developing recommendations for policy reform as Dhaka
endeavors to meet the growing challenges and urgent needs of
the urban poor. Each chapter concludes with a set of
recommended priorities for poverty reduction.
