Eminence is an evidence based development agency especially working on health, nutrition, food security, climate change, and human rights since August 2003. The organization has primarily intervened in the areas in Bangladesh where the society is malnourished as well as there is lack of public services such as access to health.
Eminence is prioritizing health and human potential that in turn make the country economically productive and equitable, socially and culturally justifiable and environmentally sustainable. The mission of the organization is to reinforce an extensively and intensively participatory society that will be sustainable in terms of healthcare, education, and economy locally as well as globally.
Background Eminence began its journey since 2003 and walked a long way to reach today’s stage. It had been a conscientious initiative by a group of eminent people who desperately recognized the overwhelming urge to work for underprivileged communities with regard to nutrition, food security, health, human rights, and social justice. The organization emphasized working in the areas of Research, Advocacy, Capacity Building, and Behavior Change Communication (BCC). Though the organization had begun from a smaller office with limited equipment, determination for efficacy and quality work was right there within the heart of organizational spirit. As a consequence during this passage of couple of years Eminence installed itself at a nice location in Lalmatia having 30 computers along with printers and other equipment. The office is provided with high speed Internet connectivity to all computers.
Since its inception Eminence has earned reputation working with high level government and nongovernmental agencies in the field of health, nutrition and development. The organization has built strong network of grass root organizations across the country. Eminence has already gathered experience working in partnership with international agencies such as Plan Bangladesh, Save the Children USA, Save the Children UK, Marie Stopes Clinical Society, CARE Bangladesh, Action Aid, Concern Worldwide, Concern Universal and so on beside extending cooperation with bilateral and multilateral agencies.
Eminence has resource pool that consists of eminent researchers in Bangladesh in their respective field. Some reputed professors, academics, researchers, and journalists are closely working with the organization on different issues. As a result, the organization is committed continuing efforts for evidence based quality output.
