The YWCA of Bangladesh believes that when women and young women lead, they can transform the world for the better. YWCA seeks to create a world where women, young women, and girls are empowered, their rights are respected, and they are leading change in their communities. It is committed to building women’s capacity as leaders, advocates for gender equality, and active participants in community mobilization. Its programs focus on women’s/girls’ health, education, livelihood, and addressing issues related to reproductive health, mental health and care, economic opportunities, climate justice, prevention and protection from child marriage, dowry, and gender-based violence. YWCA aims to empower women, young women, and girls to become change-makers, advocates for their rights, and leaders who inspire their peers to do the same. The organization embraces a collaborative, intergenerational approach to leadership development, ensuring that efforts are community-driven and responsive to local realities.
