The Women’s Resilience Index (WRI) is a tool through which resilience of a community is measured from women’s perspective. The objective of the index is to help make informed development intervention that has benefits across economic, infrastructural, social and institutional sectors.

The SDGs aim to leave no one behind, reaching those farthest behind first. For this to happen, people who are marginalised- including women, young people, people with disabilities and people from ethnic and religious minorities-must participate. They are best placed to know what their problems are and what might be workable solution. Moreover, the process of participation can itself create solidarity and get people into a position where they can start to make the changes they want.

LET THE CHANGE BEGIN WITH ‘US’ MAKE A PROMISE! We do hope that all our promises and commitments will further build cooperation and mutual respect and support a women friendly atmosphere within AAB and FLF (Bangladesh). With time we hope that this will inspire others of the larger community to do the same thus multiplying this effect.
