Relief International has disbursed mini grants to 16 to project participants who have prepared informative and hard hitting media materials for the “Transparency for Human Rights in Bangladesh” program.  Award recipients have produced a diverse range of media materials, from photo stories to video documentaries and many more.

One of the most creative outputs under the component has been the Blog for Human Rights (www.blog4humanrights.com), prepared by A.B.M. Shamsud Doza. The blog documents the latest incidences of human rights violations, as well as other news pertaining to human rights. Some of the current issues addresses by the blog are the case of Rumana Monzur , who was blinded and severely abused by her husband, the rights of labor in the ship breaking industry, budget allocations for physically challenged populations, and more.

RI highly appreciates the endeavor and lauds the efforts of the grant recipient. Output like the Blog for Human Rights epitomizes the commitment and diligence of the program participants.
