  • Summary: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u8Y2KTe-PUE From 2005-2014, BBC Janala ("window" in Bangla) was a unique service unlocking access to English language learning for millions of people in Bangladesh. On TV, online, in print and accessible through even the most basic mobile phone handset, the multi-platform service also worked through around 6000 English clubs across the country. It was part of English in Action (EiA), a major initiative designed to raise the language skills of 25 million people in Bangladesh by 2017 and funded by the UK government's Department for International Development (DFID). The goal was to contribute to the economic growth of Bangladesh by encouraging English language as a tool to improve people’s livelihoods.
