Welcome to the Bangladesh Nurses Association Website! Established in 1973, the Bangladesh Nurses Association (BNA) is the oldest, largest, and premier professional organization for nurses in the country. Since its inception, BNA has remained committed to uplifting the professional standards of nursing in Bangladesh. Beyond the realm of healthcare, the Association has also played a significant role in the socio-cultural and political development of the nation. Notably, BNA proudly contributed to the historic movement that led to the independence of Bangladesh in 1971—making it a truly unique institution. The doors of BNA are open to all categories of nurses. Our association regularly hosts national and international events, conferences, and festivals that bring together nursing professionals from across the country and around the world. It is not just an organization—it is a nurturing ground for liberal, secular, and humanist values in the nursing profession. With the sincere cooperation of nurses nationwide, we believe the nursing profession in Bangladesh is poised for a transformative leap forward. The present government has shown remarkable commitment to the development of nursing by: Converting all nursing programs into bachelor's degrees under public universities, Introducing Master's programs in Nursing, and Launching specialized postgraduate diploma programs. These visionary steps are paving the way for nursing education in Bangladesh to reach international standards comparable to those of developed countries. As our nation works toward achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030 and aspires to become a developed country by 2041, BNA stands ready to embrace the future. In this era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) and growing youth participation, we are prepared to meet the challenges ahead—armed with decades of experience, dedicated leadership, skilled professionals, and a vibrant new generation of nursing students and staff. We warmly invite you to explore the legacy, contributions, and achievements of this esteemed institution of national, regional, and global significance. Through this website, we hope you will connect with BNA’s knowledge network, understand our professional journey, and be inspired by the story of nursing in Bangladesh. Should you wish to meet in person or learn more, my office and I would be honored to welcome you at a mutually convenient time. Long live the Bangladesh Nurses Association (BNA)! Long live Bangladesh!
