The economic structure of the state has changed, and it is now mainly dependent on the service sector and industry. From 1971 to 1980, the share of GDP in the industry was 11%, which has moved to 34% in 2018; in the service sector, it was 45%, which moved to 52%. With such a change, the volume of GDP has increased, per capita income raised, and the demand for quality human resources has increased. Recently, infrastructure development has been vibrant, strongly uttered, and visible. Then, focusing on education should be our priority?

The two phenomena moulded the whole world with so many changes, struggles, risks, and challenges and may have some positive ones also (use of the internet, distinct connectivity). These two phenomena are corona attacks, and the second one is the Ukraine-Russia war. In addition to recent turmoil, Bangladesh gradually faced socio-economic changes in terms of women empowerment, GDP growth, infrastructure development, the transition from agriculture to an industry-based economy, amplified literacy rate, etc.

Keeping all those in grip, fundamental and sustainable development would be ensured through developing quality human resources, and education is the source of this sustainable development. This crucial need has been once again uttered recently by the US Assistant Secretary, Mr Donald Lue, who urged to increase investment in education for future sustainable development.
