The UNCT is supported by the UN Resident Coordinator’s Office, UNDAF Pillars, UNDAF M&E Group and any other inter-agency thematic groups as required. |

Bangladesh Country Analysis |
During the summer of 2010, the UN System worked closely with the Government of Bangladesh to undertake a comprehensive joint assessment of Bangladesh’s MDG status and progress. The results are documented in the ‘MDG Progress Report 2011’ published by the General Economics Division (GED), Bangladesh Planning Commission. Given the scope and results of the assessment, the UN Country Team agreed that a separate UN Common Country Assessment (CCA) would not be required. The assessment thus served as Bangladesh’s country analysis, identifying key development challenges, as the first step in the UNDAF process. |
