BIGD and Innovations for Poverty Action (IPA), in their role as learning partners, organised a reflection workshop with implementing partners at the Six Seasons Hotel. The workshop focused on reflecting on insights from the System Learning Report of the Whole Child Development (WCD) program in Bangladesh.
The aim was to collaboratively strategise with implementing partners to develop an Early Childhood Development (ECD) advocacy position that could catalyse meaningful change. Following the presentation and discussion on the findings, the group co-developed a list of opportunities, strategies to leverage those opportunities, a stakeholder map with defined roles, and an initial draft of a position paper advocating for the establishment of a Directorate for Children’s Affairs within the Ministry of Women and Children Affairs (MoWCA).
