that they were born inherently powerful and worthy of love, dignity, and belonging. They know that anything is possible and that the future is theirs to create. They know and find appreciative joy in the things that make them, their communities, and others unique in the world. They think critically and creatively when they encounter adversity, treating every experience as an opportunity to learn and grow. They are curious about the world around them and move through it with awareness and agency. They are lifelong learners in pursuit of holistic growth and wellbeing. They are strong readers and mathematicians who can read and write the world around them. They are acquiring the knowledge and skills that will enable them to make informed choices about their lives in school and outside school. Children engage with educators and other adults as learners, working to unlock their full potential and their communities&#8217; potential towards building a just Bangladesh and world.<\/span><\/p>

hold spaces of love, safety, joy, and healing for children, particularly those from communities that have experienced deprivation and oppression. Educators have the skills, tools, and support to be successful practitioners and meet their students&#8217; diverse needs. Educators are lifelong learners, continuously learning from and with their students, colleagues, mentors, and others. They invite children into curious inquiry and investigation of the world. They support students to gain the knowledge and skills to make informed choices \u2013 including critical thinking skills and proficiency in core academic subjects. They nurture in students self-awareness, agency, and a growth mindset. Educators work in close relationships with children and their families, affirming their identities, competence, and dignity. They are continuously working to understand their own social identities and connection to the systems of oppression that impact their students.<\/span><\/p>                            <\/div>\r\n                                            <\/div>\r\n                <\/div>\r\n\r\n            \r\n                <div class=\"tbd-modal-popup\">\r\n                    <button class=\"modal-title\">\r\n                        Vision for Bangladesh                        <svg width=\"8px\" height=\"13px\" viewBox=\"0 0 8 13\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\">\r\n                            <g id=\"About-Us-\" stroke=\"none\" stroke-width=\"1\" fill=\"none\" fill-rule=\"evenodd\">\r\n                                <g id=\"About-Us\" transform=\"translate(-437.000000, -855.000000)\" fill=\"#2F674D\">\r\n                                    <g id=\"How-It-Works-03\" transform=\"translate(0.000000, 459.000000)\">\r\n                                        <g id=\"Button---icon-Right\" transform=\"translate(202.000000, 379.000000)\">\r\n                                            <g id=\"Button-icon\" transform=\"translate(235.000000, 17.500000)\">\r\n                                                <path d=\"M0.314339745,0.315696162 C-0.104779915,0.734815821 -0.104779915,1.41185527 0.314339745,1.83097493 L4.48404302,6.00067821 L0.314339745,10.1703815 C-0.104779915,10.5895011 -0.104779915,11.2665406 0.314339745,11.6856603 C0.733459404,12.1047799 1.41049885,12.1047799 1.82961851,11.6856603 L6.7623345,6.75294426 C7.18145416,6.3338246 7.18145416,5.65678515 6.7623345,5.2376655 L1.82961851,0.304949504 C1.42124551,-0.103423498 0.733459404,-0.103423498 0.314339745,0.315696162 Z\" id=\"\u21b3-icon-Color\"><\/path>\r\n                                            <\/g>\r\n                                        <\/g>\r\n                                    <\/g>\r\n                                <\/g>\r\n                            <\/g>\r\n                        <\/svg>\r\n                    <\/button><!-- end modal title -->\r\n\r\n                    <div class=\"modal-description\">\r\n\r\n                        <div class=\"modal-overlay\"><\/div>\r\n                        \r\n                                                    <div class=\"description\">\r\n                                \r\n                                <svg class=\"modal-close-icon\" width=\"14px\" height=\"14px\" viewBox=\"0 0 14 14\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\">\r\n                                    <defs>\r\n                                        <path d=\"M12.8925,0.302485606 C12.7056685,0.115232932 12.4520176,0.01 12.1875,0.01 C11.9229824,0.01 11.6693315,0.115232932 11.4825,0.302485606 L6.5925,5.18248561 L1.7025,0.292485606 C1.51566847,0.105232932 1.26201764,0 0.9975,0 C0.732982358,0 0.479331526,0.105232932 0.2925,0.292485606 C-0.0975,0.682485606 -0.0975,1.31248561 0.2925,1.70248561 L5.1825,6.59248561 L0.2925,11.4824856 C-0.0975,11.8724856 -0.0975,12.5024856 0.2925,12.8924856 C0.6825,13.2824856 1.3125,13.2824856 1.7025,12.8924856 L6.5925,8.00248561 L11.4825,12.8924856 C11.8725,13.2824856 12.5025,13.2824856 12.8925,12.8924856 C13.2825,12.5024856 13.2825,11.8724856 12.8925,11.4824856 L8.0025,6.59248561 L12.8925,1.70248561 C13.2725,1.32248561 13.2725,0.682485606 12.8925,0.302485606 Z\" id=\"path-s1mbhh91gv-1\"><\/path>\r\n                                    <\/defs>\r\n                                    <g id=\"Our-Team\" stroke=\"none\" stroke-width=\"1\" fill=\"none\" fill-rule=\"evenodd\">\r\n                                        <g id=\"Our-Team-v2\" transform=\"translate(-1141.000000, -589.000000)\">\r\n                                            <g id=\"Webinar\" transform=\"translate(238.000000, 552.000000)\">\r\n                                                <g id=\"Close\" transform=\"translate(903.407500, 37.407507)\">\r\n                                                    <mask id=\"mask-s1mbhh91gv-2\" fill=\"white\">\r\n                                                        <use xlink:href=\"#path-s1mbhh91gv-1\"><\/use>\r\n                                                    <\/mask>\r\n                                                    <use id=\"\u21b3-icon-Color\" fill=\"#333333\" xlink:href=\"#path-s1mbhh91gv-1\"><\/use>\r\n                                                <\/g>\r\n                                            <\/g>\r\n                                        <\/g>\r\n                                    <\/g>\r\n                                <\/svg>\r\n\r\n                                <h3>Vision for Bangladesh<\/h3>\r\n                                <p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our society treats all children and communities as worthy of love, dignity, and belonging. All children can expect their basic needs to be met: safety, housing, balanced nutrition, clean water and sanitation, healthcare, protection from physical, sexual, emotional violence, and abuse. Educators, schools, and communities have the resources to support the holistic development of children and meet their diverse needs. The voices of students and educators \u2013 particularly those in communities that have experienced oppression \u2013 influence the national narrative on education and the policy and practice in the education sector.

The experience inspired her to complete her M.A. in teaching from American University and return to work in Bangladesh. She set up Teach For Bangladesh with her savings as a public school teacher with the vision to mobilize a generation of Bangladeshi leaders working to end disparity in our education system.<br><br>\nOur first cohort of 12 Fellows began teaching in underserved primary schools in Dhaka in 2014. By 2019, Teach For Bangladesh had 150 Fellows teaching across Bangladesh\u2019s two largest urban centers, Dhaka and Chattogram. In our first decade of operation, more than 12,000 young Bangladeshis have applied to teach in low-income schools through the Teach For Bangladesh Fellowship in a country where it was previously inconceivable that talented graduates with many opportunities available would compete to become teachers in under-resourced schools. <br><br>\nIn 2021, we expanded the Fellowship program to secondary schools and are in process of launching in rural, remote, and education-in-emergency contexts in Bangladesh. The program has produced more than 200 Alumni working across the public, private, and non-profit organizations in Bangladesh. Our Alumni are educators, teacher-trainers, school, organization, and community leaders, policy advocates, resource mobilizers, education researchers, Acumen, Chevening, Erasmus Fellows, and more, working in service of our vision of an equitable society and education system for all children.<\/p>\r\n        \r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <!-- end container -->\r\n  <\/section><!-- end our-story --><!-- our journey -->\r\n  <section class=\"our-journey\">\r\n    <div class=\"container-fluid\">\r\n\r\n                <h2 class=\"top-title base-color text-center font-weight-light\">Moments from Our Journey<\/h2>\r\n            \r\n      <div class=\"journey-slider\">\r\n                                    <div class=\"slider-item\">\r\n                    <div class=\"slider-eature-image\">\r\n                        <div class=\"slider-eature-image-inner\">\r\n                            <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"960\" height=\"640\" data-src=\"https:\/\/teachforbangladesh.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/journey_06.jpeg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full lazyload\" alt=\"\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/teachforbangladesh.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/journey_06.jpeg 960w, https:\/\/teachforbangladesh.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/journey_06-600x400.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/teachforbangladesh.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/journey_06-768x512.jpeg 768w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 960px;
