of producing a home-grown perspective on <a href="http://cpd.org.bd/index.php/category/monitoring-of-national-economy/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Bangladesh’s economic performance</a>, on an ongoing basis. The first IRBD report was prepared in 1995. Since then, CPD has been continuing this flagship programme by way of preparing IRBD volumes every year.</p> <p>The core objectives of the IRBDs are to provide the stakeholders with perspectives on both strategic and policy issues and current developments. The idea is to provide a civil society report card on performance of key macroeconomic parameters that would be distinct from the exercises carried out by donors and the government.</p> <p><a
