Bangladesh administrative level 0-4 boundaries (COD-AB) dataset.

These administrative boundaries were established in: 2022

NOTE: COD-PS extends only to administrative level 3. The spelling of 5 districts (and two of their divisions) were changed in 2018. The new spellings are Chattogram (for Chittagong), Barishal (for Barisal), Cumilla (for Comilla), Jashore (for Jessore) and Bogura (for Bogra). These changes will be reflected in the next COD-AB update.

This COD-AB was most recently reviewed for accuracy and necessary changes in October 2024. The COD-AB requires improvements.

This interactive map of Bangladesh highlights the project locations of the Integrated Agricultural Productivity Project (IAPP) and PRAN. Bangladesh is divided into seven administrative divisions, which are broken down into 64 districts, and further divided into 485 upazilas. This map overlays sub-national poverty data, demographic indicators, and other information relevant to the program. IAPP will target the districts of Rangpur, Kurigram, Lalmonirhat, and Nilfamari in the north and the districts of Barisal, Patuakhali, Barguna and Jhalokathi in the south. The project is expected to increase the productivity of major crops like cereals and pulses, increase the productivity of fish and livestock, increase the availability of certified seed, increase the irrigated area, and the income of farmers in all 54 upazilas in these eight districts. The project areas were selected for their high rates of poverty, food insecurity, and their vulnerability to natural shocks such as tidal surge in the south, and flash flood and drought in the north. GAFSP is financing the expansion of food processing and manufacturing capacity of Natore Agro Limited from PRAN group. PRAN group is the largest food and nutrition company in Bangladesh, with more than 40,000 employees and over 200 different products. The enhancement of operations is creating new jobs (over 1,200 expected), in a region severely affected by unemployment and is increasing the opportunities for local producers as raw material suppliers for the company.
