Background

ActionAid (AA) is a global justice Federation working to strengthen the capacity and active agency of people living in poverty and exclusion, especially women and young people, to assert their rights. We work directly with communities, with people’s organisations, women’s movements, groups and networks, social movements and other allies to overcome the structural causes and consequences of poverty and injustice. We connect our rootedness in engaging with the most vulnerable communities with broader efforts and struggles for justice at all levels to make the greatest contribution towards a just, equitable and sustainable world.

AA supports women, men, and young people to hold governments and corporates accountable, fight for justice, end all forms of discrimination and engage in meaningful decision-making processes that affect their lives. AA is also helping communities to monitor the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in their local contexts.

Young people constitute over one third of the population in Bangladesh with very close male to female ratio. The greater portion of them are the victim of poverty and deprivation in different forms that constrains their proper development. Acknowledging the country's current demographic opportunity, Actionaid Bangladesh (AAB) has prioritized the social, economic and political empowerment of young people in its programmatic areas. This recognition of the young people's contribution and its importance is reflected in AAB's fifth country strategy paper as well which is titled "Young People Leading Transformation".
