The Bangladesh Elections and Beyond:
Democracy, Security and Development

5:00-7:00 PM
Nitze Building, Kenney Auditorium

Following the recent, historic elections in Bangladesh, all eyes on South Asia now focus on the future of its democratically elected regime led by Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. While the elections, with a record seventy percent turnout, were the most free and fair in the nation's history, questions have been raised on future prospects of democracy, security, and development in Bangladesh . We will be joined by leading experts as they discuss these questions and provide their commentary on Bangladesh's future.
