Our Mission



As an affiliate of IDE International, IDE-Bangladesh seeks to realize the same broad goals and follow the same general strategies as other IDE affiliates around the world.



As a Bangladesh-based organization, IDE-B will focus on helping Bangladesh alleviate poverty and achieve its Millennium Development Goals by:



Integrating the rural poor and smallholders in particular into market systems;



Expanding access to safe drinking water and sanitation, and



Developing new methods and technologies that help smallholders raise their income.



In order to alleviate poverty through market integration and to expand access to clean water and sanitation, IDE-B will become:



The premier agency for facilitating the provision of services to small rural businesses;



The top developer of affordable technology for the rural poor, and



A premier creator of development models for rural poverty alleviation.



Goals



Between today and 2008, IDE-B will build on its past achievements by:



- Raising one million smallholders' income to at least $200 per year by emphasizing on-farm productivity, and

- Providing access to safe drinking water to one million rural families.



Today IDE-B is building on its past experience with the treadle pump to help Bangladesh meet its goals of reducing poverty and improving human development. The organization focuses on intensifying and diversifying smallholder agriculture, assuring safe water and sanitation, and creating markets that serve the rural poor. In all its activities, IDE-B seeks to work with other organizations, markets, and individuals in order to achieve sustainable solutions.
