Empowering Communities, Transforming Futures
ARA (Action for Rural Advancement) is a non-governmental, non-profit, and development
organization established in 1996 by a group of young social entrepreneurs in Satkhira, a southwestern coastal district of Bangladesh. The organization is dedicated to working on critical
sectors such as climate change, women's empowerment, safe water, human rights, elderly care,
and disaster management. It plays a significant role not only in solving local problems but also
in improving the living standards of marginalized communities.
