Dhaka rebel Prof Mohammad Azam demands a GDP cash flood for education

Bangla Academy's Director General Prof Mohammad Azam advocated for prioritizing educational reforms during a student forum at the International Mother Language Institute. The Anti-Discrimination Students' Movement hosted the discussion centered on future textbook development. Prof Azam referenced United Nations guidelines recommending that nations dedicate at least six percent of gross domestic product to educational funding. Developed nations typically allocate eight percent of their budgets toward education initiatives. Bangladesh currently maintains inadequate funding levels for meeting educational sector requirements.

Political parties should specify education budget expansion plans within their campaign platforms, Prof Azam emphasized. Additional participants examined various aspects of Bangladesh's educational framework during the forum. The discussion highlighted funding disparities between international standards and current domestic allocations. Educational investment remains below recommended thresholds despite sector demands for increased resources.
