Community Mobilisation with Women in Assasuni, Satkhira
Under the Nari Agragoti Project, YFC-BD visited households in four unions of Assasuni, Satkhira, to hear women's views on climate risks and safety.
Every Woman’s Voice Matters in Building a Safer and More Resilient Community!
The Nari Agragoti Project is funded by the Women's Peace & Humanitarian Fund (WPHF), with technical support from UN Women Bangladesh. It is implemented by Youth For Change Bangladesh Foundation (YFC-BD) in co-implementation with YouthNet Global.
As part of the project, door-to-door community mobilisation was conducted across Assasuni Sadar, Budhhata, Shobhanali, and Sreeula unions of Assasuni Upazila, Satkhira, connecting with local households and engaging women and community members in conversations about their experiences, concerns, and priorities.
Through household visits and interactive discussions, the initiative explored local challenges related to climate change, salinity, waterlogging, disaster preparedness, women's safety, and barriers to meaningful participation in local-level decision-making.
The outreach also provided an opportunity to highlight the importance of women's leadership in climate peace mediation, conflict prevention, and disaster risk reduction while strengthening community awareness and engagement.
