Abstract

This significant success in Population Control Program (PCP) in Bangladesh has surprised many researchers both inside and outside of the country. But still, there is a major gap related to the involvement of men in the program. As the Bangladeshi community is patriarchal and most members are conventional, it is therefore assumed that the participation of men in PCP is incompatible with manhood. This paper is an attempt to argue that men’s involvement as a tool of Positive Masculinity approach can contribute to the PCP in Bangladesh. It also aims to show the significance of Positive Masculinity in PCP to lessen the burden on female lives and to dispel the ignorance surrounding male roles in PCP.
