Welcome To BIMRAD
Welcome to Bangladesh Institute of Maritime Research and Development (BIMRAD), the first maritime research organisation in the country. BIMRAD was established in 03 July 2018. The Institute is patronised by Bangladesh Navy. The initiation of the BIMRAD lies in a long-felt need to enrich maritime sector and to fill intellectual void by providing a common platform for discourse amongst maritime related institutions, organisations, think tanks and disciplines of the country. In broader sense to augment maritime awareness of policy-makers and civil society.
The aim is to bring all stakeholders onboard, carry out research on maritime affairs, security, exploration and conservation of sea resources, maritime science & technology, maritime tourism, maritime pollution, biodiversity, marine ecology, coastal disaster, marine renewable energy and climate change impact, food security, adaptation for development of policy option, enhance public awareness through seminar, conference, workshops, training and symposium and put forward recommendations for the decision makers on maritime strategy for the country.
To achieve the above aim, BIMRAD is committed to build an independent maritime research platform consisting of all stakeholders, maritime thinkers, retired personnel, dedicated scholars and professionals who would have the opportunity to carry out research on whole extent of maritime domain especially focusing on the areas concerning Bangladesh.
