Digital Commerce Dispute Board (DCDB)

A Policy Framework for Trust, Accountability & Justice in Bangladesh’s Digital Commerce

বাংলাদেশের ডিজিটাল কমার্স দ্রুত বৃদ্ধি পেলেও একটি বড় গ্যাপ এখনো রয়ে গেছে, আর সেটা হচ্ছে  structured dispute resolution system-এর অভাব। 

বর্তমান বাস্তবতা:

  • কাস্টোমারের অভিযোগ → Facebook পোস্ট  
  • Seller response → informal negotiation 
  • Result → unresolved conflict, trust erosion
    এই অবস্থায় একটি sustainable digital economy তৈরি করা সম্ভব না।
