Campus Report :
A 12-day long training program on “Financial and Economic Analysis” jointly organized by the Department of Development Studies of Dhaka University (DU) and Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO) of United Nations began on Sunday at the Arts Building of the University. Dhaka University Vice-Chancellor Prof Dr AAMS Arefin Siddique inaugurated the training program as chief guest.
Chairman of the Department of Development Studies of DU Prof Dr Abu Eusuf presided over the function while Chief Technical Advisor of Food and Agricultural Organization of the United Nations Dr John Ryder addressed it as special guest. Prof Dr Niaz Ahmed Khan, Prof Dr Taibur Rahman of DU and other FAO team members were present on the occasion.
DU Vice-Chancellor Prof Dr AAMS Arefin Siddique urged the government officials to frame working plan and implement it immediately through hard work.
He said, government officials must have a clear vision to fulfill the expectations of general public. They need to gather knowledge of analysis oriented tools and techniques to cultivate professional approaches in this regard, the VC added.
He also called upon the professionals to remain accountable for accomplishing the objectives of the projects. He hoped that the training program would help enhance the skills of professionals.
The VC paid his deep homage to the memory of Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman in the month of national mourning. He quoted the Bangabandhu’s advice and urged professionals to follow the rule of self-containment, self-purification and self-criticism for achieving self-development and self-respect.
It may be mentioned that the Dhaka University Development Studies Department organized this program to create trained and skilled manpower to deal with development projects under the government and non-government sectors. A total of 20 government officials from the Ministry of Agriculture are participating in this training program.
