Dr. Abdul Moyeen Khan, a member of the BNP Standing Committee, has advocated for increased international collaboration, especially in the areas of technology transfer and capacity building, in order to guarantee equitable development, enduring peace, and justice for coming generations.
“We call for stronger international cooperation, particularly in technology transfer, capacity building, and sharing of best practices from around the world,” he told the 152nd Assembly of the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU) in Istanbul on Thursday, according to a message received here on Friday.
The head of Bangladesh’s delegation to the IPU Assembly, Dr. Moyeen Khan, stated that no nation can accomplish these objectives on its own and emphasized the necessity of international collaborations to increase the availability of reasonably priced assistive technologies and efficient social protection systems.
Speaking during the session with the topic “Nurturing Hope, Securing Peace and Ensuring Justice for Future Generations,” he stated that Bangladesh is still dedicated to inclusive social development and that inclusion is the cornerstone of justice, peace, and stability.
“If we are serious about building a better future for the next generation, we must begin by empowering those who are most often left behind,” the BNP leader told the assembly.
Highlighting Bangladesh’s democratic journey, he said the country was founded with the goals of democracy and economic welfare of the underprivileged, but its path has not been smooth.
“We had repeated setbacks in our long struggle, but each time the resilient people of Bangladesh have risen in favour of democracy, human rights and good governance,” Dr Moyeen said.He said inclusion requires systemic transformation, noting that efforts are underway to improve accessibility in education, healthcare and employment sectors.
He emphasized the crucial role that parliament plays in this process by passing inclusive legislation, making sure that funds are allocated appropriately, and upholding efficient oversight to ensure accountability.
The member of the BNP standing committee also called for increased international cooperation in order to exchange best practices and bolster institutional capabilities.
“The IPU provides a unique platform not only to exchange ideas but also to commit to practical and measurable actions that can transform the lives of millions,” he stated.
In the future, he emphasized the importance of investing in human resources, building inclusive infrastructure, and fortifying institutions.
“Inclusion is not charity – it is justice. And justice is the foundation of peace,” he said, adding that a society should be judged by how it empowers its most vulnerable citizens.
Additionally, he emphasized the significance of democratic principles, stating that democracy is about the majority ruling with the permission of the minority.
Dr. Moyeen Khan expressed optimism for a society characterized by friendliness and respect among individuals as he concluded his remarks, calling for peaceful coexistence and world harmony.
