This is a story of how disaster and poverty in Bangladesh have been tackled over the past quarter century from the views of those assisted and those assiting. The book highlights the changing philosophies and practices of one of Bangladesh’s leading NGO the Rangpur Dinajpur Rural Service (RDRS). It traces its progress from a simple relief agency to a mature, complex and unique development organisation supporting government efforts in poverty alleviation in greater Rangpur-Dinajpur region. The description is pregnant with numerous innovative ideas which should inspire organisations working with poor people in circumstances similar to those in Bangladesh. It also records the failures of RDRS which should help the organisation to move forward with the confidence necessary to face the new millennium and of making a lasting and positive impact on one of Bangladesh’s poorest regions.
