Mapped in Bangladesh (MiB): Rapid Survey by CED-BracU
Research Brief here: https://bit.ly/MiBRapidSurvey
As the Bangladeshi RMG factories have reopened from 26 April 2020 amid the Covid-10 pandemic and to envisage their experience; CED of Brac University has conducted a “Rapid Survey” through its “Mapped in Bangladesh” (MiB) project in the first week of May 2020.
The objective of this rapid survey was to identify to what extent these are operational and producing face masks and PPEs (personal protective equipment) along with or without their regular products during the pandemic.
The survey also collected information on the current number of workers and the total capacity currently utilized in the operational factories, and to what extent these factories are expecting to resume their regular operation from June if the Covid-19 pandemic crisis continues.
Based on the survey data, a separate digital map (https://covid-19.mappedinbangladesh.org/) has been designed and developed by the technical map development team of MiB project showing which factories are producing face masks and PPE, along with the status of their workforce.
