Secular Youth Foundation, Bangladesh (Bangladesh, Asia)
Secular Youth Foundation has been working since 2005. They believe the present situation in the country needs urgent attention towards mutual respect and bonding "because relationships are often troublesome, and there are many news of communal clashes making people stay apart from each other led by fear and mistrust." Their plan is to open doors for the youth to learn global issues to solve local challenges. They believe that no youth should be engaged in drugs and crime; rather, they must live a peaceful, exuberant life. They think their work will also help overcome discrimination.
