Maternal and Perinatal Death Surveillance and Response (MPDSR) in Bangladesh
Bangladesh initiated the implementation of the maternal and perinatal death review (MPDR) system in 2010 with the aim of achieving the Millennium Development Goal targets on maternal mortality reduction by 2015. The MPDR system was piloted between 2010 and 2015, initially covering 10 out of the country's 64 districts. Drawing on lessons learned from implementation and international guidelines, the program was subsequently updated and renamed as the Maternal and Perinatal Death Surveillance and Response (MPDSR) system in 2016. It became an integral part of the government's routine program and gradually expanded its geographic coverage, eventually encompassing all 64 districts by 2022.
UNFPA, UNICEF, and WHO Bangladesh, along with other development and implementing partners, have been strong technical collaborators with the Government and Ministry of Health and Family Planning, providing support for the nationwide implementation of MPDSR.

Bangladesh Case Study: Review of Technology-based Interventions to Address Child Marriage and Female Genital Mutilation
There is currently no data available on the practice of FGM in Bangladesh. The lack of data evidencing the prevalence of FGM in Bangladesh can be attributed to the lack of attention from national governments and the international community as to how this practice occurs in countries in the Asia-Pacific region, considering that much of the work related to advocacy and prevention efforts are focused on countries of high prevalence in Africa and diaspora in Europe.
