Not long ago, in 2005, one out of every four people in Bangladesh would go to bed hungry. By the end of 2017, however, it is projected that less than one person in every 10 would be skipping a meal each day. Bangladesh has reduced poverty from 40 percent in 2005 to 24.3 in 2016. It is only proof of the veracity of our measures that we continue to progress beyond the Millennium Development Goal deadline of 2015 to halve poverty and hunger. Hence, it is little surprise that Bangladesh is dubbed a development wonder—a role model for eliminating hunger. But since the focus has shifted towards the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG), this discussion will strive to underpin how Bangladesh continues to achieve its development goals largely through the effective diffusion of Information and Communications Technologies. The uniqueness of this story is that the Bangladesh is not doing it alone, but facilitating environment that encourages people to contribute to progress. — blog.wb.org/blogs
