The report, Assessing the Gender Responsiveness of Tax System in Bangladesh, explores how Bangladesh’s tax system impacts gender equality and identifies gaps in making taxation more inclusive and equitable. Conducted under UNDP Bangladesh’s Equanomics Programme, the study highlights the country’s heavy reliance on indirect taxes, low tax-to-GDP ratio, and limited gender-sensitive fiscal policies. It recommends reforms to create a fairer tax system that better supports women’s economic participation, social protection, and inclusive development.
