BRAC World

Formerly Bangladesh Rural Advancement Committee, BRAC is the world's largest development organization, touching the lives of an estimated 135 million people. We seek a world free from all forms of discrimination, where everyone has the opportunity to realize their potential. With staff and BRAC-trained entrepreneurs numbering in the hundreds of thousands, we are a global movement creating opportunities at scale for people to end poverty for themselves and their communities.

Our videos come from BRAC headquarters in Dhaka as well as from our affiliate offices in New York and London. BRAC operates programs in microfinance, community health, education, livelihood development, agriculture and legal empowerment in 11 countries around the world.
