NGOs in Bangladesh

Bangladesh has been perhaps the most important hearth on the globe for non-governmental organizations. Some estimates place the number of NGOs in Bangladesh in excess of 20,000. There are many types of NGOs in the country, but most focus on development or poverty alleviation. Bangladesh is often seen as the birthplace of the microcredit NGO, namely the Grameen Bank. The Comilla District in Bangladesh has also long been the pet project of global developmental theorists and NGOs.Here some NGO are categorized according to their main area of work but the categorization is not accurate as some of the NGO have very diverse activity so it is very difficult to define them in a single category
