Section 6, Fraud and Corruption B Section 7. Terms of Reference A. PROJECT DESCRIPTION Al. As a key part of this strategy, the Government of Bangladesh, with the support of the World Bank, is implementing the Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Shilpa Nagar Development Project under PRIDE project, to support pilot projects under the new EZ model. By doing so, the projects will demonstrate the viability and efficacy of new models to remove key constraints facing the private sector, including adequate infrastructure, access 10 serviced land and good social practices. Particular attention will also be paid to commercial practices and good governance to attract public-private partnerships in zone development, service provision and/or management coupled with a strong emphasis on environmentally and socially compliant manufacturing. A strengthened institutional framework will also be supported through policy advice and capacity building to help accomplish these objectives. A2. The PRIDE design consists of the public sector portion of investment in land, infrastructure and services for a number of pilot EZ, selected to implement new approaches to EZs in Bangladesh. ‘The RRIDE will support transformative investments beyond already established sectors. A key outcome is a contribution towards zoned industrialization, which will enable Bangladesh to maximize the growth benefits of agglomeration and ease the increasing urban congestion. More importantly, the project will enable new sources of growth, where investor interest have already been noted, including but not limited to pharmaceuticals, IT/IT related services, ceramics, processed and frozen food, and ship building. RRIDE project are working for Bangladesh Economic Zones Authority (BEZA) in this regard 3.
