The Bangladesh Conference aims at helping institutes in Bangladesh and surrounding countries to develop effective research infrastructures by strengthening information skills of a target group of 60 students, researchers, policy-makers and individual practitioners in the field of global development studies & research.

The Bangladesh Conference also aims at establishing a group of local experts who will continue the work of the conference: promoting the latest information sharing and collaboration. This continuation is made possible, because the Focuss Info Initiative (www.focuss.info) sponsors peers in Africa, Asia and South America by awarding grants. With these grants, local experts get the possibility to organise their own workshop on the new information sharing and collaboration tools, techniques  and concepts.
