Public Policy Course

Since its inception, Youth Policy Forum has been working with the aspiration of understanding policies better for a greater future. We believe knowledge is integral to growth and development. One of our key goals is to transform the youth of Bangladesh into skilled, knowledgeable individuals. Our young population has already proven their dedication and drive to improve the condition of our state and our citizens. Given the opportunity to develop their knowledge and skills, we believe our youth can lead us to a better, prosperous and equitable future. With this view, YPF has introduced Policy Courses. This segment will offer courses in various fields and be conducted by field experts. Students will have the opportunity to get certification upon completion of course requirements.

The very first Public Policy course was launched on 12 th September, 2020 with an inaugural lecture from Muaz Jalil on Basics of 3P. The course has been designed to acquire insightful perceptions on policy from top academics & professionals of the world. The response from the lecture has led to a current participation of 100 registered enthusiasts . The course offers both certification & non-certification facilities. To ensure engagement from around the country, the course also offered quota for participants outside the capital. Acknowledging the network issues, YPF has provided the potential candidates with necessary internet facilities as well.
