Words from our Country Director
Ram Das

It is an absolute honour to be part of CARE Bangladesh, as we mark 75 years of our service to the causes and people of Bangladesh. I am humbled to note that we have played a significant role in creating shared value and in shaping the socio-economic development of the country over the years. This has been possible due to the selfless service of the staff and trusted partnerships we have nurtured during this incredible journey. I laud the efforts of our staff as they continue to pursue the mission relentlessly and without discrimination, and I am immensely thankful to our partners for their trust and belief in our mission.

CARE has its footprint in more than 100 countries today, and our operations in Bangladesh has been of high importance. CARE has always prioritized the needs of the vulnerable, especially women and girls. This has now become more pronounced with newer challenges posed by climate change as also the perpetuation of inequality in the society. We understand that we cannot truly attain social justice unless we keep women and girls at the core of our programs. Our core focus intertwined with the partnerships at local and international level has given CARE Bangladesh this long legacy. As we recognise and celebrate this significant milestone, I would like to reiterate CARE’s commitment to communities’ progress and the country’s development.
