• From a Beneficiary & Community Leader

  The fisher folk community of Gazaria was deprived and marginalized due to the lack of their accessibility to the natural resources like open water fisheries. We were organized to claim our rights. We didn’t know the laws properly. Ambala Foundation, Mr. Arif Sikder and Mr. S M Saifur Rahman changed our lives through a Human Rights Program. We are organized and started getting our rights.
