Ganga, pictured in the middle with other senior students of Hands in Outreach (HIO), is studying at Asian University for Women in Bangladesh. Ganga stays busy!  She studies, volunteers, pursues leadership training, and recently attended a climate literacy workshop. Ganga recognizes the connection between #child marriage and #climatechange and explains, “In coastal Bangladesh, due to rising sea levels, families are worried about their future, so they marry off their daughters at a young age … Pregnancy at an early age is detrimental to both mother and child.”  Gendap is proud to partner with HIO in the education and empowerment of such brave women and girls.
