Socioeconomic Profile Findings Table 34: VGD Card Access by Households with Women aged 18 to 49 Years Total The relationship between households with women between 18 and 49 years (these households account for 92 percent of the total households) and households possessing VGD cards is highly correlated. Nearly 90 percent of VGD cardholders reside in households with women aged 18 to 49 years, yielding an inclusion error of 11 percent of households that do not include a woman between the ages of 18 and 49. (However, it should be noted that the proportion of VGD is approximately the same for households with or without women aged 18 to 49 – 8.2 and 8.7 percent respectively.) Finally, disaggregating VGD possession by socioeconomic category by WFP zone reveals some differences in targeting success rates. Overall, a relatively larger proportion of CHT, Coastal, and Haor households have secured VGD cards than have households in the Char, Northwest, or Drought zones. The Haor zone, where 16 percent of invisible poor households and 11 percent of vulnerable households possess VGD cards, appears to have relatively more accurate and fairer targeting and selection outcomes than is the case elsewhere. On the other hand, Coastal zone Union VGD Committees have distributed VGD cards to an alarmingly high proportion of non-vulnerable households – 14 percent, a larger proportion of VGD recipients than any of the other three categories of households.

Political party membership is extremely low throughout rural Bangladesh – only 4.4 percent of households have become members of a political party. Not surprisingly, it appears that political party membership is quite restricted to non-vulnerable households – 14 percent have pursued political party memberships; invisible poor households are virtually absent (0.1 percent of all vulnerable households have political party membership). Political party interests are invariably structured around the interests of its members. There are noticeable regional variations in political party membership patterns. Eight percent of all rural CHT households have established political party membership, far more frequently than in other regions of the country. More than half (57 percent) of the Bengali households have political party memberships in the CHT, and 23 percent of Chakma households are members of a political party. This indicates, despite being the minority Bengalis dominate the membership of the political parties in CHT.
