Abstract

In 2020, the largest non-governmental organization in the world, BRAC, headquartered in Dhaka, Bangladesh, has some big problems to tackle. Its founder, Sir Fazle Hasan Abed, has left behind a challenge: take the 1981-founded organization from Bangladesh to every single part of the world and create a global set of programs and program heads. Active in education, health, microfinance and poverty alleviation, BRAC is also entering the humanitarian and relief world through its work with Rohingya refugee camps in Bangladesh. What will be the way forward for this global NGO based in the South?
