COVID-19 and Bangladesh analyzes the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic and features the socioeconomic fallouts for disadvantaged communities in Bangladesh, their coping mechanisms, and implications for the country’s development ambitions.The contributors to the book examine the immediate impact of economic adversities, which rapidly translated into health, employment, education, and other socioeconomic problems. They show that the pandemic has disproportionately impacted the communities that were traditionally left behind and created a new group of people that are “pushed behind”. Structured in four sections, the book examines impact and adjustment in the areas of employment, income, and expenditure and health, education, and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and offers policy perspectives. The empirical analysis and policy conclusions presented in the chapters are based on official secondary data, household-level primary surveys, focus-group discussions, key informant interviews, and reviews of public policy documents. The policy conclusions and outlook presented in the book can be instructive for other low-middle income, or graduating least developed countries (LDC).A unique contribution to the current debate on the diverse implications of the COVID-19 pandemic, this book will be of interest to policymakers and academics studying health and society in Asia and other countries of the Global South.

This book considers how development cooperation principles and practices can be made more inclusive and impactful. Amplifying voices from across the global south, the book combines key thematic discussions with new case studies spanning three continents and three key sectors: agriculture, education, and social protection. Global governance is at a crossroads, and modalities of foreign aid delivery are under stress as international development cooperation continues to lose political traction in provider countries.Presenting a novel and nuanced understanding of the dynamics shaping the global development landscape, this book considers the strategic issues influencing development partnerships and outcomes. It consolidates cross-country policy insights from the global south, based on sectoral experiences shaped by contextual realities. The authors adapt the "Moderator-Mediator" framework as a means of examining the contextual factors shaping development partnerships and consequently leading to “successful” development outcomes in a specific sector at the country level.This book holds special relevance in the current political climate, where the future of development financing is increasingly contested. Global development researchers and students will benefit from the book’s ingenious blending of sector-specific insights and broader discussions of the themes underpinning contemporary development cooperation debates.
