A Message from the Executive Director

Welcome to PRATAY. Since our establishment in 1991, we have remained steadfast in our mission to organize people, build capacity, and create sustainable pathways out of poverty. Our vision of a just society—where every person, regardless of their background, has access to quality resources and opportunities—continues to guide every decision we make.

Over the past three decades, we have witnessed remarkable transformations. Women who once had no voice are now leading community organizations. Children who were denied education are now in classrooms. Families living in extreme poverty are now earning dignified livelihoods. These changes did not happen by chance—they happened because communities came together, supported by dedicated development workers and strategic partnerships.

PRATAY’s strength lies in our people-centered approach. We don’t impose solutions; we co-create them with the communities we serve. We believe in the inherent potential of every individual, and our role is to unlock that potential through education, training, advocacy, and access to resources.

As we look to the future, we remain committed to expanding our reach, deepening our impact, and advocating for systemic change that benefits the most vulnerable. I invite you to join us in this journey—whether as a partner, supporter, or advocate for social justice.

Together, we can build a Bangladesh where no one is left behind.

Warm regards,

Rokeya Jahan (Reba)
Executive Director
PRATAY
