Honorable Chair , Esteemed delegates

As stated by the international labour organization itself , With more than 64 million unemployed
youth worldwide and 145 million young workers living in poverty, youth employment remains a
global challenge. The development needs to keep pace with rising unemployment . Furthermore ,
the unemplyed shouldn’t just be provided jobs but quality employment . Prevailing Issues such as
job security , safe working conditions , adequate wages and appropriate working hours need to be
addressed and resolved .

Therefore , the delegate of Bangladesh would like to accentuate upon the fact that The world is
changing – and the way we approach development must change, too. Bangladesh believes in
adopting Policies that strengthen access to employment must be combined with efforts to raise
awareness on decent working conditions. The first step to development is the progress of the least
developed. In bangladesh , loans and micro financing are being provided to businesses so as to
enable them to create strong market connections and stabilize their businesses so one day they will
be self sufficient .

Women and other groups are being trained efficiently and provided with the required resources

Bangladesh as a developing country has successfully been able to prevent major decline in economic
growth during tough times like covid 19 by adopting several good s strategies .

A rebound of manufacturing and service sector activities led strong growth in FY21 and 22.

Since its founding in 1971, Bangladesh has emerged from overwhelming poverty to be proclaimed by
The World Bank in 2020 as 'a model for poverty reduction'. It achieved the highest cumulative GDP
growth globally from 2010 to 2020 and is now on course to become a developed country by 2041.
