Bangladesh is implementing significant educational reforms focused on technology and vocational training. The government announced plans to integrate artificial intelligence, robotics, machine learning, and cybersecurity into the national curriculum for students in grades six through ten. These reforms also include introducing new subjects like ‘Sports and Culture’ and ‘Learning with Happiness’ at lower grade levels, while making technical education mandatory for middle and high school students to bridge the gap between theory and practice.

Expanding on these domestic initiatives, Bangladesh has engaged with international bodies to address the broader implications of emerging technologies. At a UNESCO Executive Board session, officials called for the adoption of strategies to regulate artificial intelligence to protect future generations. Domestically, the government continues to prioritize increasing school enrollment, expanding technical training, and providing inclusive education for marginalized communities in climate-vulnerable regions.
