UNGA sideline Conference 2022 on Branding Bangladesh: NRB, UN Peace keeping & Humanitarian Approach Rohingyas

Bangladesh represents an interesting case among the developing countries.
Despite its huge potentials and impressive success in many sectors in recent
decades, notwithstanding its numerous failures, its overall image in the outside
world remains largely negative. A section of the global media also tends to
downplay its achievements and overplay its negatives which also contribute to
its negative posturing. As a result, Bangladesh lacks the level of visibility in the
international arena which it rightfully deserves. Quite ironically, its name appears
in the international media more often with incidents associated with, among
others, floods, poverty, corruption, political instability and likely worst impact
of global warming. It is imperative that necessary steps are taken to aggressively
pursue “country branding” in a way which not only creates a positive image
about the country but also upholds its unique characteristics and attributes before
the international community and also to her own people. Bangladesh remains a proud contributor to UN peacekeeping operations. It is currently the top contributor of military and police personnel to UN peacekeeping missions, with almost 6,500 peacekeepers currently deployed in eight countries.
