I am a graduate student at the University of Guelph, Ontario-Canada. I am currently doing my Master's degree in Capacity Development and Extension (CDE) and International Development Studies. I have also completed my Masters degree in Development and Management Practice from BRAC University. I was involved in various development studies projects when I was in Bangladesh. I have conducted a number of field visits and research on ongoing development projects conducted by Oxfam, SIDA, IUCN and ICDDR(B) in Bangladesh.
I always had keen interest on the rural development projects and use of ICT. In today's world ICT has changed our everyday life and a lot can be done to improve the agriculture sector in rural areas with the help of ICT.
I am also working as Research Intern for Institute for Community Engaged Scholarship (ICES) where I am planning to work on projects related to rural development and agriculture.
