Work Experience

Designation: Fellow

Duration: November 2022 to December 2024.

Teach For Bangladesh (TFB) works to reduce educational inequity in targeted schools and communities while simultaneously building a movement of leaders who will spearhead the macro-level changes needed to reshape our education system and society at large. 

TFB fellowship is a unique, rigorous, and internationally-recognized Fellowship for young adults with tremendous leadership potential and an appetite for challenge. Fellows spend two years embedded as full-time teachers in under-served schools, expanding the educational opportunities of their students while expanding their capacity as leaders. They leave the program not only having directly affected the lives of hundreds of disadvantaged students but also with the conviction and the skills to lead change through high-impact careers in the public, corporate, or development sectors in Bangladesh.

Crisis Documentation Center — Crido is an archive-based non-profit organization led by volunteers. Its motive is to archive reliable data and information on various crises and human rights violations in Bangladesh to create a knowledge base for activists, organizations, researchers, and others.

Crido was founded in March 2020 with the primary purpose of documenting the crisis of the Covid-19 pandemic in Bangladesh, and it published monthly documentation on its website from March 2020 to October 2021.

Besides, Crido started some other documentation projects like Sexual Harassments, Border Killing, Crisis of Indigenous People, Crisis of Working Class people, and Crisis in the Education Sector. Additionally, Crido documented various events including but not limited to a Fire Incident in Rupganj (2021), the Protest Against Narendra Modi’s Visit to Bangladesh, Power Plant Workers’ protest, and Police Action in Bashkhal (2021), etc.

Currently, Crido has initiated a project "July Archive" to document the incidents of the July Mass Uprising in Bangladesh and hopes to expand its work even more.
