In spite of having strong support from constitutional and legal support for the rights of women, there has been no equal rights of women in our society because of the existence of masculinity. Every day, the destruction of human rights of many women is being lost, the constitutional guarantees of the state are being lost and women's rights and helplessness are increasing.
In the absence of awareness of women's rights in our country and due to the enforcement of the existing limitations of existing laws, women are deprived of the benefits of their right to access and legal aid, whereas on the other hand the presence of discriminatory laws makes their situation more vulnerable. In this reality, the Hunger Project-Bangladesh provides women's rights and legal education to feminists through continuous training process to prevent all types of violence against women including prevention, child marriage, domestic violence, harassment and women's rights.
