A feminist organization working to challenge inequality and discrimination across Bangladesh’s social, political, economic, and cultural life.
Our Focus
BUILDING FEMINIST IMAGINATION
We dream of just, liberated futures. Through campaigns, storytelling, and everyday acts of resistance, we challenge hetero-patriarchal norms and cultivate new ways of seeing, feeling, and being.
UPLIFTING MARGINALIZD VOICES
We center those often excluded: intersex, disabled, working-class, and gender-diverse communities. We create platforms for their demands, anger, joy, and visions for change.
REFUSING SILENCE
We confront the everyday silencing of those who resist, question, or exist outside dominant norms. Whether it is an intersex child denied recognition or a protester pushed out of public discourse, we name injustice and refuse its normalization.
PRACTICING COLLECTIVE CARE
Our work isn’t only about resistance; it is also about care. We believe in building relationships grounded in solidarity, listening, and healing justice. We engage in feminist dialogue, share resources, and hold space for grief, rage, and joy.
SPEAKING BACK, SPEAKING UP
We use feminist media to interrupt dominant discourse: through visuals, statements, collaborations, and campaigns that speak back to power, state violence, and social hypocrisy.
