CARE Bangladesh

CARE started its operations in Bangladesh (previously East Pakistan) in 1949. CARE Bangladesh amplifies voices of the poor and marginalized in ways which influence public opinion, development practice, and policy at all levels - drawing on grassroots experience and relationships with civil society, government, and the private sector. CARE Bangladesh targets four of the poorest groups in Bangladesh in order to achieve sustainable impacts on their lives: socially, economically and politically marginalized women; rural poor who rank lowest in social, political and economic wellbeing; marginalized urban populations; and communities at risk from natural disasters and environmental change.
