Governance and Advocacy		Neeti Gobeshona Kendro believes that effective governance is paramount to ensuring that the needs of the poor are met, that central policy is effectively and equitably implemented, and democratic accountability and transparency are ensured. Our Governance programme works to strengthen the links between Union Parishads and local people, so that local people can demand and receive their rights and local government can effectively implement pro-poor targeted policy.
Livelihoods		Secure and sustainable livelihoods are at the core of meeting development needs of the poor in Bangladesh. The requirements of the MDGs cannot be met against a background of household income insecurity, and therefore Neeti Gobeshona Kendro seeks to bridge the gap between livelihoods requirements identified by the poor and policy makers.
Human Rights		Respect for human rights of all citizens is fundamental if Bangladesh is to alleviate disadvantage and poverty. Neeti Gobeshona Kendro’s Human Rights Programme reflects our firm belief that development targets and intervention can only be effective if the rights inscribed by law are actually expressed on the ground. Our human rights programme has three areas of concern: minority rights, freedom of movement¸ and human rights education. Neeti Gobeshona Kendro’s Human Rights Programme has researched education exclusion of Bihari (ethnic Pakistani) children; domestic violence against women; the relationship between governance and human rights; and unheard voices in Bangladesh.
