Narrative Description of the Project:
An impactful Exposure Visit Program entitled 'Urban Governance and Infrastructure Development' in both China and India was organized by IPTM as part of the Third Urban Governance & Infrastructure Improvement (Sector) Project (UGIIP-III). This program was arranged for the Local Government Engineering Department (LGED) under the Ministry of Local Government, Rural Development & Cooperatives. A select group of 10 participants had the privilege of participating in this comprehensive exposure visit program. The duration of this assignment was from November 2019 to January 2020. This endeavor allowed these individuals to gain invaluable insights into the intricate workings of urban governance and infrastructure development, drawing from the experiences of two of the world's most dynamic nations, China and India. The program undoubtedly contributed significantly to enhancing their knowledge and expertise in this critical field, empowering them to drive positive change and development in Bangladesh. This exposure visit program not only enhanced the knowledge and expertise of the participants but also contributed to the broader goals of improving urban infrastructure and governance in Bangladesh.
