Rising Women, Rising Bangladesh
Empowering Women for a Stronger Tomorrow
In every corner of Bangladesh — from the green villages to the heart of our cities — women are the heartbeat of progress. They nurture, they lead, they build, and they inspire. Yet too often, their strength goes unseen, and their potential untapped.
At Women for Tomorrow (WFT Foundation)
we believe that when a woman rises, an entire community stands taller. Our mission is to connect women, nurture their dreams, and empower them with the tools they need to shape a brighter future.
Our Vision for Empowerment
We work to create lasting change through:
Education & Skill Development - Opening doors to learning, digital literacy, and self-employment.
Health & Well-being -Ensuring access to medical care, nutrition, and mental health support.
Rights & Equality - Raising awareness about women’s rights, safety, and dignity.
Leadership & Community - Inspiring women to lead — in homes, workplaces, and society.
Child marriage - 51.4% of child marriage, accounting for 1 in 2 women — are married before their 18th birthday, marking it the highest child marriage rate in Asia.
Women Business ownership - Women own approximately 7.2% to 10% of all small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Bangladesh.
Women's Nutrition - 70 per cent women lacked deficiency vitamin D, 20 per cent vitamin B12 and 7 per cent women had mild vitamin A deficiency.
Women violence - 76% of ever-married women have experienced intimate partner violence (IPV) in their lifetime.
Together, We Rise - Through compassion, courage, and collaboration, we are building a Bangladesh where every woman’s voice matters — where every girl can dream without fear, and every mother can stand with pride. Because when women rise, Bangladesh shines.
We are with over
1 million people, isolated in flood-stricken communities.
502,501 displaced individuals
3,403 evacuation shelters.
The districts most severely afflicted include Noakhali, Cumilla, Laxipur, Feni, Chattogram, and Moulvibazar. The flooding has inundated rural roads, agricultural fields, and fishponds, disrupting vital access and severely jeopardizing local livelihoods. The disaster has impacted an estimated 296,852 hectares of crops. The total damage, as estimated by the Centre for Policy Dialogue, has reached Tk144 billion (US$1.2 billion).
We Work in the Most Vulnerable Communities
On August 21, 2024, intense rainfall, combined with a surge of water released from a dam in India’s Tripura, culminated in catastrophic flooding that impacted 73 upazilas (sub-districts) and 528 unions/municipalities across 11 districts in northeastern and southeastern Bangladesh. This event marks one of the most devastating flood occurrences in recent history.
