Mohammed Rezwan started Shidhulai
Swanirvar Sangstha in 1998. As a native Rezwan saw
first-hand the hardship of riverside communities in
Bangladesh who had no access to information and the
opportunities it affords. Particularly, in the childhood he
was always frustrated when school was cancelled during
monsoon flooding.
Rezwan thought if the children can not
come to the school because of poor communication, then the
school should go to them. To address the problem, under his
leadership Shidhulai introduced the boat school in 2002. |
