Nurturing opportunity, dignity and hope in vulnerable communities in Bangladesh
আমাদের সম্পর্কে
Friendship is a non-governmental organisation that helps poor people in Bangladesh. We make it our priority to reach communities in remote areas that are otherwise inaccessible. We strive to create sustainable solutions that work in the real world and help struggling communities become self-sufficient. The marginalised Char dwellers in Bangladesh count among the most underprivileged communities in the world. Our work began by making healthcare more accessible to them. We converted a barge into Friendship’s first floating hospital and it began its work in 2002 under the direction of Runa Khan (Founder and Executive Director). It soon became clear that to make a lasting impact on people’s lives we had to resolve other issues at the same time to break the cycle of poverty. We now focus our support on six programmes: - Health - Education - Disaster Management and Infrastructure Development - Good Governance - Sustainable Economic Development - Cultural Preservation. You can help us continue to bring life-saving services to Bangladesh’s marginalised men, women and children.

Fishing in the Bay of Bengal is not just dangerous—it’s a livelihood fraught with financial insecurity. Generations of fishermen have been trapped in debt to local moneylenders, unable to escape the cycle of high-interest loans and unpredictable incomes. We’re committed to liberating fishermen and their families from debt bondage. Through safer equipment, fairer market prices, and sustainable income opportunities, we’re empowering them to regain control of their lives. Safer practices lead to healthier communities and sustainable ecosystems. #OneHealth #DebtFreeFutures #SustainableLivelihoods #FishingCommunities #Resilience #friendshipngo

‼️ Promoting inclusive access to green energy: a path towards sustainable development 🌍 ADA promotes access to green energy through inclusive finance. Our latest analysis carried out with the Luxembourg Institute of Science and Technology (LIST) highlights the positive environmental impact of projects in Senegal and Bangladesh that provided access to sustainable energy to vulnerable populations while reducing greenhouse gas emissions. ➡️ In Senegal, solar lamps reduced emissions by 98% and energy efficient stoves by 56%. ➡️In Bangladesh, solar-powered farming reduced emissions by 91% compared to diesel-based systems. As the COP negotiations in Baku are approaching, the urgency of such initiatives cannot be overstated. Discussions will centre on finding innovative ways to address the global climate crisis, and inclusive finance has a critical role to play. By empowering communities to access low-carbon technologies, we help pave the way towards a just and sustainable energy transition. 👉Read our full analysis here: https://lnkd.in/eqB2B3Sw Luxembourg Institute of Science and Technology (LIST)Mathilde Bauwin Inclusive Finance Network Luxembourg InFiNe.lu Friendship Luxembourg Friendship NGO European Microfinance Network e-MFP #COPBaku #ClimateAction #GreenEnergy #InclusiveFinance #SustainableDevelopment #RenewableEnergy
