Mongol Deep Foundation, British Council, and CCD Bangladesh organised the Women of the World (WOW) Festival Dhaka 2023 on February 24 and 25 at Bangladesh Shilpakala Academy.
As one of the curators, Bonhishikha hosted two sessions. The panel “Naribadi na Neribadi” featuring experts like Nidhi Chakma, Sudeshna Biswas, Md Muntasir, and Tasnuva Ahmed. The discussion addressed common misconceptions about feminism, such as the belief that feminists hate men or oppose family structures. We also hosted the workshop “How to Access Information About Your Property Rights” in collaboration with Badabon Sangho and UQEEL at Shilpakala Academy. This event aimed to raise awareness about property rights for Bangladeshi citizens, particularly focusing on women’s rights to access, inherit, and control property.
Despite international standards advocating for gender equality, many remain unaware of their rights. Our expert panel discussed these issues, empowering participants to navigate the complexities of property rights and advocate for themselves.
