説明 | Parveen (left) is just one of the inspirational health workers who live and work in Dhaka’s Korail slum, Bangladesh, providing practical help to women in her community like Horobala Begum (Right) who is 6 months pregnant.For the past 8 years, Parveen has worked for the Manoshi project run by the Bangladeshi organisation BRAC, with support from UK aid and other international donors. She is in no doubt about the impact it has had on her:"BRAC has changed my life by giving me the opportunity to become a community health worker and serve my own community. In addition to some financial benefits, my role and contribution as a health worker has enhanced my position and acceptability in the community.I cannot explain to you the feeling of an empowered and valued woman in the community that I gained due to my involvement with BRAC Manoshi."BackgroundThe UK is proud of its work with BRAC in Bangladesh. We are providing £223m over 5 years to BRAC to lift hundreds of thousands of people out of extreme poverty, give over 200,000 children a primary school education and much more, including a focus of support to women and girls.Find out more: www.gov.uk/government/world/organisations/dfid-bangladeshPicture: Ricci Coughlan/DFID------------------------------------------Free-to-use photoThis image is posted under a Creative Commons - Attribution Licence, in accordance with the Open Government Licence.
