Chairman's Message

It is my great honor to welcome you to Connecting People for Democracy and Development. At a time when the values of democracy, human rights, and social justice are being tested across the globe, our mission has never been more urgent or more necessary.

We believe that real change begins with awareness. When people are informed, they are empowered. When communities understand their rights and responsibilities, they can actively shape a better future—not only for themselves, but for generations to come.

Our NGO is a platform for connection: between individuals and ideas, between communities and change-makers, and between awareness and action. Together, we can create a society where every person, regardless of their background, feels empowered to speak, act, and lead.

I invite all citizens, especially the youth, to join hands with us in this journey. Let us work together to build a more conscious, democratic, and inclusive Bangladesh.

With solidarity,

Shakhawat Hossain
