Transparency International Bangladesh(TIB)
Basic Informations
TIB’s continued efforts for strengthening voice and demand for improved policies and practices towards transparency, accountability and good governance gained further momentum during the reporting period. Seven research reports were released, following which significant policy initiatives were undertaken. Many of the reports invoked negative response from a section of the powerful as usual, but even in those cases TIB was able to engage more with relevant authorities and other stakeholders to bring in necessary policy reforms.
While the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) welcomed the findings and agreed with the TIB’s recommendations on the institutional strengthening assessment, Bangladesh University Grants Commission (UGC) and Association of Universities of Bangladesh (AUB) rejected the findings of the study on lecturer’s recruitment, terming those unfounded. TIB credibly defended its findings and also managed to
generate substantial public support in its favor. In almost all the cases, the public endorsement to TIB’s studies was observed in newspaper editorials, op-eds, commentaries, and social media reactions. In a number of other instances, the relevant authorities initiated policy reforms consistent with TIB findings and recommendations.
