Expanding Ecosystem for Greater Impact
In addition to its long-standing partnership with over 200 NGO–MFI Partner Organizations, which serve as PKSF’s primary last-mile delivery mechanism, PKSF has established diverse forms of partnerships with a wide range of stakeholders to enhance innovation, technical depth, and impact. These partnerships extend beyond conventional program implementation and are designed to address emerging development challenges through specialized expertise.
PKSF collaborates with academic and research institutions to strengthen knowledge generation and capacity building, exemplified by its Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with RMIT University, Australia, under which 18 PKSF officials have already received training on climate-resilient housing.
PKSF also partners with international development and health organizations to deliver targeted social interventions. Notably, through its MoU with Orbis International, PKSF is facilitating access to free cataract surgeries for nearly 100,000 people, implemented through its Partner Organizations, significantly improving eye health outcomes among low-income populations.
Beyond these examples, PKSF continues to engage with fintech companies, private sector actors, and specialized institutions to advance digital financial inclusion, strengthen value chains, and promote sustainable enterprise development. Together, these diversified partnerships complement PKSF’s PO network and reinforce its ability to deliver inclusive, scalable, and resilient development solutions across Bangladesh.
