He said such measures are essential to enable developing countries to sustain investment in children, women, education, health and social protection, while keeping progress towards the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) on track.<br>Speaking during a meeting with UNICEF Deputy Executive Director for Humanitarian Action and Supply Operations Ted Chaiban at UNICEF House in New York, Dr. Titumir said rising energy prices, supply chain disruptions and increasing debt burdens had significantly narrowed Bangladesh&#8217;s fiscal space. Despite these challenges, he said the Government remains committed to protecting vulnerable populations and advancing its vision of a democratic human welfare state under the &#8216;Bangladesh First&#8217; philosophy. State Minister for Planning Zonayed Saki also attended the meeting.<br>The Adviser highlighted the Government\u2019s commitment to a universal life-cycle-based social security system placing women at the centre of development. He said the Family Card initiative would support women-led households and provide assistance across different stages of life, including pregnancy, childhood, education, disability and old age.<br>State Minister for Planning Zonayed Saki stressed the importance of reliable and integrated data systems and outlined the Government\u2019s proposed \u201cOne Child, One Card, One Number and One Wallet\u201d strategy to improve birth registration, school enrolment and access to public services.<br>He also sought UNICEF\u2019s cooperation in strengthening teachers\u2019 capacity through digital training and learning tools to improve the quality of education. The State Minister highlighted initiatives promoting multilingual learning, sports, culture, museum visits and extracurricular activities as essential components of children\u2019s holistic development.<br>Deputy Executive Director Ted Chaiban congratulated Bangladesh\u2019s newly elected Government and also welcomed the country\u2019s election to the presidency of the 81st Session of the United Nations General Assembly. He commended the Government\u2019s ambitious initiatives to protect vulnerable populations, particularly children and women, despite significant fiscal constraints. Welcoming the priorities outlined during the meeting, he reaffirmed UNICEF\u2019s commitment to strengthening its partnership with Bangladesh in education, early childhood development, nutrition, social protection, teacher capacity-building and child-focused data systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">-Press Release<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"463\" src=\"https:\/\/newturn24.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/1-2-1-2-1024x463.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2215\" srcset=\"https:\/\/newturn24.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/1-2-1-2-1024x463.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/newturn24.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/1-2-1-2-300x136.jpg 300w, https:\/\/newturn24.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/1-2-1-2-768x347.jpg 768w, https:\/\/newturn24.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/1-2-1-2-1536x695.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/newturn24.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/1-2-1-2-2048x926.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New York, 17 July 2026: Adviser to the Prime Minister for Finance and Planning Dr. Rashed Al Mahmud Titumir has called on the United Nations system to establish an international mechanism for debt restructuring, debt relief, debt suspension and sustainable debt solutions to help developing countries address mounting fiscal pressures arising from the Middle East [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2210,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2213","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.9 -
