WE ARE HERE TO BUILD CAPACITY, INSPIRE ACTION AND CONNECT PEOPLE AND CAUSES
At Global Platform Bangladesh we support movements, youth networks, organisations, and individuals who work to promote the agenda of progressive youth-led change.
Our aim is to equip young people with knowledge, skills and attitude to facilitate progressive social change to throw off poverty and injustice.
We have developed an effective methodology for designing, carrying out and evaluating capacity building. All activities are based on our participatory and action-oriented learning principles:
