iDE Bangladesh

About

iDE Bangladesh was established in 1984 as iDE's first country program. The program pioneered the development of private sector supply chains for manual irrigation pumps, recognizing the huge productivity constraint that a lack of steady access to water had on rural farmers. After an initial success in promoting the rower pump, we found an efficient and cost-effective solution to the problem of water control in the treadle pump. To date, more than 1.5 million treadle pumps have been sold in Bangladesh, creating 1.4 billion dollars in net additional income per year.
Today, iDE Bangladesh focuses on two broad themes: Agriculture and WASH and
implements programs focused on using a market-oriented development model to
improve the lives of people living in poverty. We seek to understand base-of-the pyramid customers, analyze market constraints, and explore high-value market opportunities - with the ultimate goal of catalyzing pro-poor change that is sustainable, scalable, and inclusive.
Our current programs are focused on improving food and nutrition security through agricultural innovations and inclusive markets. We also take pride in our sanitation market systems-focused programs that have now reached scalable points along with new and innovative ventures in women's economic empowerment, clean energy, and light engineering & manufacturing extensions support.
