College Road, Uttar Horin Singha, Gaibandha-5700, Bangladesh.

The birth of the Organization is traced back in the activities of a local CBO at Bharatkhali of Gaibandha district. Geographically, one of the distinctive features of the district is that out of its total 2179 square km the mighty rivers Teesta, Brahmaputra and Jamuna engulf the large north to south in the eastern part. The mighty rivers are the natural beauty of the areas, and on the other hand those are the reason turning Gaibandha as one of the most disaster-prone districts of Bangladesh. Flood is a common phenomenon during the monsoon. Reversibly there is prevalence of drought in the dry season. River erosion appears as the severe threat to the life of the people as it turns the victims most vulnerable with the loss of their home, land and livelihood.
