True to their word, the NNCJ members have been enthusiastically carrying out various activities to accomplish the “Transparency for Human Rights in Bangladesh” project’s goal of promoting human rights among 20 districts of Bangladesh.  The NNCJ members have now developed a newsletter on fundamental principles of human rights and the various aspects of human rights.

The Newsletter begins with catchy titles like “Every Human Has Rights”, and analyzes the basic meaning of rights and human rights. Rights are a legitimate claim, and with rights come responsibility. A citizen of country has the right to freedom, respect, and security, and at the same time the individual must also be responsible enough to follow the laws of the country. Moreover, the Newsletter delves into the meaning of human rights, which is the undisputed right of all individuals since the time of their birth. It states how all individuals must have the freedom to exercise their basic rights, as long as they ensure that they do not violate any other entity’s rights in the process.

The rest of the document carries various such analysis and information. It has been published in the local language to ensure that maximum number of our targeted beneficiaries is able to comprehend it. The story has already been circulated among program participants, NNCJ members, local community members, local government and religious leaders, and more such stakeholders.
