It is with deep sadness that we let you know that the first female Mathematician and Academician Professor Rowshan Ara Rashid, mother of Mr Anir Choudhury, founder member and Governing Body member of D.Net is no longer with us (Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'oon). She passed away in the morning on July 30, 2010 at the Square Hospital. She was suffering from bronchitis.
She spent most of the time of her life for achieving knowledge and in teaching. She started her professional life as Lecturer at Eden Collage in 1967 after completing her education in 1966. Then she successfully fulfilled her duty as Vice Principal, Responsible Principal and Principal in this college. She retired in 2002 from her loyal duty. Her body had laid to rest at Mirpur Intellectuals Graveyard after Asar prayer at 30th July.
May her soul rest in eternal peace, and may the healing effect of time help her family bear this misfortune with the grace that she always embodied.
Programmes & Projects
Research & Programme
Research and Programme Division is the heart of D.Net. The division's activities are divided into six themes:
Access to information and Knowledge
Business Competitiveness for Economic Growth
Governance and Human Rights
Human Capacity Building
Institutional Capacity Building
Economic and Development Policy Research
This section provides information on ongoing and completed programmes and projects under the six themes, mentioned above.
Since the inception, D.Net feels that knowledge should be well managed and organised for achieving institutional goals and objectives. D.Net believes that proper and timely available knowledge is the hidden secrete of development at personal, institutional and national level. With this feeling D.Net has initiated a separate knowledge management division (KMD) back in September 2005. From the beginning the division is dynamically improving its skill, preserving institutional knowledge and supporting D.Net’s programmes and projects. D.Net’s knowledge management division has divided its activities in two groups: Tasks group, and Projects group.
