This report concentrates on the situation of women in policing in Bangladesh and<br />
highlights the value of diversity in policing in Bangladesh, points out the diversity deficit<br />
as regards gender, and recommends measures to repair it. At its core, this report champions<br />
the inclusion of women in policing on the utilitarian ground that in today’s policing<br />
the maximum police functions can be performed by either gender and there is little to<br />
support the myth that policing is a ‘man’s work’ alone. The report which provides survey<br />
findings, as well as documents experiences and challenges faced by women police, along<br />
with recommendations, will be of utility to the Bangladesh Government, the Bangladesh<br />
Police and civil society to inform the current debates around improving the gender balance<br />
within the police.<br />
