Mapped in Bangladesh (MiB)
www.mappedinbangladesh.orgMapped in Bangladesh (MiB) is a 4-year research initiative by Centre for Entrepreneurship Development (CED) of BRAC University that aims to map the export-oriented ready-made garment (RMG) industry across all garment-producing districts in the country. MiB’s design and implementation is in response to a lack of essential industry data, like how many export-oriented factories actually exist in the country, how many male/female workers are employed there, what kind of products are produced, and/or which brands work with them, etc., among other relevant information. In line with the nation’s “Digital Bangladesh Vision 2021”, with the MiB tool, the RMG industry is expected to come one step closer to aligning itself to the mandate of digitization of every sector. MiB (formerly “DRFM-B” – Digital RMG Factory Mapping in Bangladesh) is a scale-up of a pilot project titled “Participatory Factory Mapping Research” (PFMR) focused on two (2) subdistricts in Bangladesh conducted by CED-BRACU. MiB’s lead funding agency is Laudes Foundation and co funding agency is the Kingdom of the Netherlands . Bangladesh Garment Manufacturers and Exporters Association (BGMEA) and Bangladesh Knitwear Manufacturers and Exporters Association (BKMEA) are the strategic partners of the project. The project is also supported by the Department of Inspection for Factories and Establishments (DIFE) under the Ministry of Labour and Employment (MoLE), GoB.
