During COVID-19, the Rohingya Women Adolescent Empowerment Association (RWAEA) took action! Afsara Begum, teacher at RWAEA, was one of the students of OBAT’s Empowerment Center for Rohingya Women. Now, she is not only teaching there, she’s also serving as the Chairperson of RWAEA!
This video showcasing the OBAT center’s work as narrated by Afsara,
was presented at the International Women’s Day celebration program in Cox’s Bazar by GiHA WG (Gender in Humanitarian Action Working Group, a sector of ISCG, Inter Sector Coordination Group, the coordinating agency of Rohingya Crisis response).
The RWAEA also displayed their handmade products at an International Women’s Day celebration program at Cox’s Bazar. This program was organized by the UN (Women and Education Sector).
We are so proud of Afsara and how far she has come!
