Inspira recently delivered a two-day residential capacity building and Training of Trainers programme for RMG factory managers, energy and utility teams, sustainability and compliance personnel, under Oxfam in Bangladesh's project Accelerating Fair Transition to Renewables for Industrial Decarbonization. The aim was to leave factories with people who can identify where energy is being wasted, build the financial case for fixing it, plan renewable integration that actually works on their site, and understand why the transition has to be a just one.
Sessions moved from efficiency in the systems factories already operate, boilers, compressed air, motors, lighting and monitoring, into renewable energy integration and the financial analysis behind it. Participants worked through their own factory scenarios, calculated payback and returns on the measures they were considering, and practised making that case to owners and management. Several arrived having already installed rooftop solar and brought questions from live projects.
Energy transition is usually described as a move from fossil fuels to renewables. What makes it just is decided elsewhere. Fossil-based power arrived from somewhere far away and factories had little say in it. Renewable generation sits inside the boundary of the facility, which changes who holds decisions about energy. The same applies to skills. When solar and efficient systems are installed, technicians and engineers are needed, and if hiring is left to run on its own, those roles go overwhelmingly to men while women stay in administrative positions. A just transition requires women and workers across social classes in the technical roles as well.
Participants left with a plan to run sessions of their own inside their factories. That is the reason for training trainers rather than holding a single workshop. The knowledge stays where the decisions get made, instead of leaving the room with the trainer at the end of the second day.

Inspira is supporting the rollout of a digital monitoring tool across a nationwide portfolio of renewable energy infrastructure, covering solar irrigation pumps, rooftop solar systems, and biogas plants that until now have been monitored through paper registers and manual reporting.
Our team has been in the field with inspectors and monitoring officers, observing how data is actually collected at each site and helping shape standard operating procedures for the transition, from offline data collection and photo documentation to how issues get escalated and resolved. The goal is a single monitoring workflow that works consistently across the country.
Paper-based monitoring is slow, and problems can sit unnoticed until a report finally reaches the right desk. Digital monitoring changes that with field data arriving in near real time, photos verifying site conditions, and maintenance decisions resting on evidence rather than estimates.
Renewable energy infrastructure only delivers value if it keeps performing over its full lifespan, and that depends on knowing how each installation is doing long after it is built. Standardized digital monitoring makes that possible at national scale.
Stay tuned for more from the field!

Rabbeny joined Inspira as an intern, and from the start his research has been rigorous and detail-oriented. His work has ranged from WASH to climate-resilient livelihoods, different problems on the surface, but each one grounded in the same concern for the communities the research is meant to serve. He has grown a great deal since then, showing real dedication to solving on-the-ground problems. That, alongside his tireless commitment, is what made this recognition well earned.
What sets him apart is his ability to never lose sight of the purpose behind the research. He combines analytical rigor with a practical understanding of the decisions clients need to make and believes that impactful research goes beyond data, it requires empathy, effective communication, and genuine respect for the communities it serves.
In his new role as Associate, Rabbeny aims to further strengthen his expertise in WASH, water quality, and water resources management while contributing to solutions that advance climate resilience and improve access to safe water.
Congratulations, Rabbeny! This achievement is truly well deserved, and we're excited to see the impact you'll make in the years ahead.
At Inspira, we believe in nurturing talent, recognizing dedication, and creating opportunities for people to grow into meaningful roles. If you're looking for a workplace that values learning, ownership, and impact, we'd love to hear from you.

Inspira supported Austrade South Asia in convening a Bangladesh–Australia Fintech Engagement Session in Dhaka last month, bringing a visiting delegation of Australian fintech companies together with Bangladeshi banks, MFS providers, and SME lenders.
Inspira delivered the market briefing on Bangladesh's fintech landscape and coordinated one-on-one sessions between the visiting companies and local financial institutions, structured around each company's specific partnership interests rather than a general roundtable.
A number of these conversations have continued past the session itself, a good early sign for the kind of focused, partner-specific engagement the dialogue was built for. We look forward to supporting more companies work through what entering Bangladesh's fintech market actually takes, and finding the right local partners to do it with.

Farha joined Inspira as an intern, and in a short time she has worked across a range of themes most people take years to touch: just energy transition and skills development, child protection and child marriage prevention, media accountability, and access to finance for the microfinance sector.

What stands out is her methodological discipline. She thinks carefully about how a study should be built before anyone collects a single response, and it shows in the quality of what comes back, from data collection tools and evidence matrices to the analysis that turns fieldwork into findings a client can use. A background that runs from biotechnology to public health gives her a way of approaching problems that is genuinely her own.

Congratulations, Farha. This is a well-earned step, and we are looking forward to what you take on next.

Bangladesh is expanding cluster financing for CMSMEs, including a Tk 3,000 crore refinancing facility designed to improve access to affordable credit.
But loans to individual firms cannot solve the shared constraints holding entire clusters back: testing, certification, cold storage, precision machinery, waste treatment, logistics and other infrastructure no single small business can finance alone.
The real opportunity is to move from financing enterprises inside a cluster to financing the systems that make the cluster competitive. Done well, that could unlock far more than credit—it could determine whether high-potential sectors are able to meet export standards and move into higher-value markets.

Shohan joined Inspira in 2023 as an Associate. Three years on, he has been a key part of several research and evaluation assignments across diverse thematic areas including trade facilitation, RMG decarbonization, WBT evaluation, gender finance, ROI and financial modelling, and agribusiness market studies.

What we have come to rely on is his judgement about evidence. He knows the difference between data that is interesting and data that answers the question a client actually asked, and he builds studies backwards from that. He has carried assignments from inception through to final report, keeping teams and timelines steady along the way.

Asked what he would tell someone starting out in this field, he said:
"Sit with the data longer than you think you need to. The obvious finding is usually the first one you see, and it is usually not the one that matters."

Congratulations, Shohan. We are excited for you to thrive in your new role!

Bangladesh's mobile financial services now reach close to half of all adults, nearly double the share with a bank account. By that measure, it looks like a fintech success story.
So why is around 80% of e-commerce still settled in cash, and why does foreign capital keep hesitating over one of Asia's most talked-about digital markets?
The reach is real. What sits beneath it is the part nobody is looking at, and it may decide whether the next decade of Bangladeshi fintech delivers or stalls.

Inspira Advisory & Consulting works at the intersection of research and financial inclusion, helping institutions understand where their products and programmes are, and aren't, reaching women entrepreneurs.
Working for over a decade in SME research and financial inclusion studies across Bangladesh, we've supported development partners and financial institutions in designing evidence based strategies for underserved segments.
We're currently conducting a nationwide Baseline Study on the Gender Gap in Access to Finance for Women Led Businesses. Our client needs a clear picture of where women entrepreneurs get stuck between informal enterprise and formal credit, before designing a large scale intervention.
We're looking at this from every angle: a nationwide survey, focus group discussions, in-depth interviews, and consultations with banks, regulators, and industry bodies, tracing not just what the barriers are, but where exactly women drop off and why.
The kind of diagnostic work that turns a well-intentioned programme into one that actually moves the needle.
Working on financial inclusion, women's economic empowerment, or MSME development? We'd be glad to talk.

𝗔 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗱 𝗠𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁!

Congratulations to our colleagues Farha Fatima, Ronak Ara and Srayoshi Bashed Mirza who were awarded First Place for Best Research Paper Presentation at the National Community-Based Organization (CBO) Summit 2026.

Bangladesh's climate story is often told through cyclones, floods, and vulnerable coastlines. They asked a different question: what happens when climate vulnerability moves inland? As rapid urbanization, industrial expansion, and climate migration reshape the country's landscape, they explored whether existing climate policies are evolving alongside these emerging realities and what climate justice truly means for communities living at the frontlines of urban climate risk. That question became the foundation of the work that earned them this recognition.

The summit, organized by Oxfam Bangladesh, Breaking the Silence, and Australian Aid, was held over two days on 24-25 June 2026 at the Krishibid Institution Bangladesh (KIB), Dhaka, bringing together community-based and youth organizations working on climate justice, resilience, gender justice, and ecosystem restoration and giving researchers a platform to present their work among peers and key stakeholders addressing Bangladesh's most pressing climate challenges.

Your passion and drive for real, lasting changes are exactly what will carry this country toward a better future. We are proud to have you at Inspira.
