According to the Bank’s website, the project will establish a Peer Learning Partnership (PLP) to support at least 20 private sector businesses across IFC's priority industries in Bangladesh to better recruit, retain, and promote women employees in their workplaces by improving policies and practices to support workplace participation of all genders, particularly women, and secure business benefits.
Through the Peer Learning Partnership, IFC will demonstrate the business case for gender diversity and inclusion to private sector companies leveraging IFC's experience globally and in Asia, secure commitment from companies to improve gender diversity and inclusion in their workforce, and support companies to realize these commitments by providing recommendations, and guidance and tools to improve workplace policies and practices to recruit, retain and promote more women in the workplace. Priority industries include consumer goods, financial institutions, heavy manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, textile and apparels, and infrastructure.
IFC will document the project, its outcomes and impact and capture lessons learnt. These resources will be disseminated through innovative communication to catalyze the private sector in Bangladesh to improve gender diversity and inclusion in the formal workforce.
Estimated Total Budget: $636,852.00 (Project budget includes all project-funded activities)

ACCOUNTABILITY MECHANISM OF IFC/MIGA
The Compliance Advisor Ombudsman (CAO) is the independent complaint mechanism and fact-finding body for people who believe they are likely to be, or have been, adversely affected by an IFC or MIGA- financed project. If you submit a complaint to the CAO, they may assist you in resolving a dispute with the company and/or investigate to assess whether the IFC is following its own policies and procedures for preventing harm to people or the environment. If you want to submit a complaint electronically, you can email the CAO at CAO@worldbankgroup.org You can learn more about the CAO and how to file a complaint at http://www.cao-ombudsman.org
