WHO WE ARE

A Platform for Deeper Understanding

“Ideas help societies move forward.”

Policy Forums is a non-profit policy analysis and discourse platform. We are Bangladesh-rooted but connect global happenings and policy aspects as it requires for comprehensive understanding of the policy aspects.

This platform analyses the economic, political, foreign, social and cultural policies that shape people’s lives, in Bangladesh and beyond; and also digs into the ideas, principles and reasons behind the policies. Our objective is to understand the policy discourses and explore the links among them, creating a positive ecosystem for the betterment of the people and the country.

We deeply respect the beliefs and emotions of the people of the country, while creating a positive exchange between ideas for progress and prosperity.

OUR PURPOSE

We don’t just ask “what happened.” We ask “what does it mean?”

Policy Forums is not a news outlet chasing what happened. We bring up analyses and ideas from specialists, researchers, think tanks, professionals, businessmen, politicians, and citizens at large for respectful and constructive dialogue and debate.

OUR MISSION

To strengthen public policy discourse by linking different policy related forums, experts, researchers, think tanks, professionals, politicians, businessmen, media, and citizens through evidence and fact based analysis and dialogue.

OUR COMMITMENT

Rooted in Bangladesh. Connected to the World.

We examine global developments, trends and policy shifts, but our focus stays firmly on Bangladesh — what these changes mean for its people, institutions and future. Every analysis we publish is built to help readers connect the dots between the wider world and the decisions that shape their own country.

“Local realities. Global context. A more informed tomorrow.”
