The UK-Bangladesh Research Centre (UKBRC) is an academic initiative that promotes collaboration between the UK, Bangladesh and other nations with special attention for developing economies in research, education, and innovation. We support joint research, student and faculty exchanges, and capacity-building across institutions. Focused on global and regional challenges, UKBRC fosters partnerships between academia, industry, and policy sectors to encourage impactful, ethical, and sustainable research. Through conferences, fellowships, and a digital knowledge hub, we aim to create lasting academic connections and real-world solutions.
