Digital Bangladesh – A Bridge to Connecting People and Empowering Communities

The digital Bangladesh is a term coined by the Prime Minister of Bangladesh, Sheikh Hasina. Bangladesh became one of the first countries in the world to connect all its villages to a fiber-optic network in 2013 and was declared the fastest growing ICT market in the world by Gartner. 

Digital Bangladesh has three goals: to create jobs for graduates and rural youth, to provide accessible and affordable internet services, and to increase e-government services. The government uses digital technology for providing services such as document management systems, online voting, online tax payments and eliminating corruption. The government of Bangladesh has laid out their vision to become a highly digitized society. They are trying to accomplish this by using digital technologies in all spheres of the country's activities.

The government is cognizant of the fact that rapid digitization can deliver immense benefits to the country, but it also brings new challenges. The success of Digital Bangladesh depends on how well these challenges are met and how fast they can be resolved. Bangladesh is one of the most densely populated countries in the world. Access to internet is still a challenge for many people who live in rural areas. However, Bangladesh has made significant progress in digital development over the last few years. The government has launched ambitious programs to bring broadband connectivity to villages and mobile data to remote areas. Bangladesh also has a thriving startup ecosystem that focuses on digital technologies in diverse sectors, including agriculture, health care, education, energy and transportation. The goal is to make Bangladesh a digitally-empowered society with inclusive growth for all. The Bangladeshi government is working on bringing 5G connectivity to more than 100 cities by 2020 under Digital Bangladesh Initiative 2020. This will enable e-commerce services in rural areas where there are no brick-and-mortar stores or delivery services.The Complete Guide to Digital Bangladesh and How It is Shaping the FutureIntroduction: A Brief Introduction of Bangladesh & How it is Evolving with Digitalizationkeywords: digital Bangladesh, digital Bangladesh strategy, Bangladesh e-governance, Bangladesh e-commerce.

‘ডিজিটাল বাংলাদেশ ঘোষণা: ডিজিটাল বাংলাদেশ’ কথাটি প্রথম সামনে আসে ২০০৮ সালে। ২০০৮ সালের ১২ ডিসেম্বর, বাংলাদেশ আওয়ামী লীগের নির্বাচনী ইশতেহারে তৎকালীন বিরোধীদলীয় নেত্রী ও বর্তমান প্রধানমন্ত্রী শেখ হাসিনা উল্লেখ করেন যে, "২০২১ সালে স্বাধীনতার ৫০ বছরে বাংলাদেশ ‘ডিজিটাল বাংলাদেশে’ পরিণত হবে।“, যা পরবরতীতে বাংলাদেশ ও বাঙালি জাতির এক পরম আরাধ্য স্বপ্নে পরিণত হয়। কারণ যখন এই ধারণাটি সামনে আসে, তখন সারা বিশ্বে তথ্য ও যোগাযোগ প্রযুক্তি এক বিপ্লবের সূচনা করেছিল। কিন্তু তখনও বাংলাদেশ তথ্য ও যোগাযোগ প্রযুক্তি ক্ষেত্রে অন্যান্য দেশের চেয়ে পিছিয়ে ছিল। তাই এই পরিকল্পনাটির মূল লক্ষ্য ছিল, একটি উন্নত দেশ, সমৃদ্ধ ডিজিটাল সমাজ, ডিজিটাল যুগের জনগোষ্ঠী, রূপান্তরিত উৎপাদনব্যবস্থা, নতুন জ্ঞানভিত্তিক অর্থনীতি - সর্বোপরি একটি জ্ঞান ও প্রযুক্তিভিত্তিক দেশ গঠন করা। ‘বাংলাদেশ কম্পিউটার সমিতি’ ২০০৯ সালের ১২ থেকে ১৭ নভেম্বর, ‘ডিজিটাল বাংলাদেশ সামিট’ নামক বিষয়ে প্রথম শীর্ষ সম্মেলনের আয়োজন করে, যাতে ডিজিটাল বাংলাদেশ প্রতিষ্ঠা এবং অগ্রাধিকারের বিষয়গুলো আলোচিত হয়। আর এর পর থেকেই এ ব্যাপারে বিভিন্ন সরকারি ও বেসরকারি কর্মসুচী গৃহীত হতে থাকে, যা 'ডিজিটাল বাংলাদেশ' গঠনে অগ্রণী ভূমিকা পালন করে।
