Senior officials of ERD and the Danish Embassy in Dhaka were present at the programme. 

In the changing scenario of Bangladesh, Denmark is expanding the assistance for interventions in human rights, democracy and good governance aligned with the reform agenda of the country, read the release.

Bangladesh and Denmark have a 52-year-long history of bilateral cooperation. During this period, Denmark has been supporting Bangladesh in the areas of agriculture, water and sanitation, transport sectors, climate change, human rights, and good governance programme.

Denmark is also involved in commercial activities through the Trade Council, the release added.
