By combining our expertise, we aim to create a positive impact on communities and contribute to the overall well-being of our citizens."

The signing event brought together key representatives from both organisations – Abu Muhammad Shihab, deputy general manager and Nusrat Zerin, AGM and technical lead of Inclusive Citizenship Friendship; and Majumder Babu, head of multimedia, Syed Ahmed Chowdhury, AGM, sales & advertisement and Sagar Shahriar, senior producer, Multimedia of the The Business Standard.

The Business Standard, with its emphasis on promoting best practices in business and the economy, has been a reliable source of news and information in Bangladesh. Powered by a group of experienced journalists, TBS focuses on visual storytelling to help readers decipher the most complicated issues, covering general news, sports, features, and entertainment.

Established in 2002, Friendship operates across six sectors, including health, education, inclusive citizenship, sustainable economic development, climate actions, and cultural preservation, focusing on climate-impacted and marginalised areas such as the char islands and riverbanks in the north and the coastal belt in the south of Bangladesh.

The Inclusive Citizenship (IC) Programme of Friendship, initiated in 2012, has been instrumental in improving knowledge and awareness among hard-to-reach char communities on government structure, legal, human, and civic rights.
