Bangladesh Academy for Rural Development (BARD)
The campus covers an area of 156 acres of land including undulating hilly terrain and valleys. A large part of the campus consists of orchards, vegetable farms, nurseries, parks, and roads lined with shady tropical trees. The office and the residential buildings have been designed and located in harmony with the topography and surrounding landscape. The well-planned layout of the institution and green landscape gives the campus a serene and idyllic beauty.
Bangladesh Academy for Rural Development (BARD) (Bengali: বাংলাদেশ পল্লী উন্নয়ন একাডেমী (বার্ড)) is an autonomous institution that strives for research and training of local people as well as practitioners on rural development. The Academy is known for implementing Comilla Model in the 1960s which has been internationally recognized as a model project for rural development in developing countries. BARD was established in 1959 in Comilla (as Pakistan Academy of Rural Development), under the initiative of Dr. Akhtar Hameed Khan who became the institution’s founder-Director. After the Partition of Pakistan, the institution was renamed to its present form.
One of the main functions of BARD is to provide training for both officials and non-official members of the public and private institutions working on rural development. The training is provided in the form of courses, visit programmes, workshops, and seminars. The research is basically aimed at collecting socio-economic data for planning and project preparation. Findings are also used for training and information materials by respective public bodies and planning institutions. Research also relates to the evaluation of national rural development programs either independently or jointly with government agencies, universities, and research organizations.
