YFCBD Advocates for Marginalized Voices in Budget Dialogue

On June 18, 2025, Youth for Change Bangladesh Foundation (YFCBD) proudly joined the national conversation on the upcoming budget at a multi-stakeholder consultation titled “National Budget 2025–26: What Did the Marginalized Receive?” organized by Citizens’ Platform for SDGs, Bangladesh in Dhaka.

We’re proud to share that Jahid Kabir, Program Manager at YFCBD, participated as a panelist speaker, representing the voices of youth and marginalized communities in this crucial pre-budget dialogue.

The event brought together a diverse group of stakeholders—including representatives from NGOs, INGOs, government, private sector, and political parties—creating a vibrant and inclusive space to raise concerns before the national budget was finalized.

The discussion emphasized the urgent need for equity-driven budget allocations, spotlighting issues like youth unemployment, education access, and social protection for vulnerable groups—ensuring that development efforts truly reach those furthest behind.
