The Centre for Policy Dialogue (CPD), established in 1993, is a civil society think tank dedicated to promoting inclusive policymaking, citizen participation in democracy, and sustainable development. The private company is based in Dhaka, Bangladesh. CPD conducts research across areas such as macroeconomic performance, economic reform, green transition, renewable energy, social protection, labor and employment, gender equality, education, climate change, public financial management, trade and regional cooperation, investment, infrastructure, governance, and sustainable development goals. Its flagship initiative, the Independent Review of Bangladesh’s Development (IRBD), provides ongoing analysis of Bangladesh’s economic performance, national budget, and development challenges, offering policy recommendations. CPD undertakes projects on unemployment insurance, renewable energy targets, social protection for workers, and trade policy, including analyses related to Bangladesh’s graduation from least developed country status and engagement in WTO reforms. The organization fosters policy dialogue and civic activism through conferences, workshops, seminars, media briefings, and public discussions, and publishes reports, policy papers, and opinion pieces to inform policy debates.
