Students are coming together to raise awareness about issues they think are important in their local community. These include: pollution, smoking and eve-teasing. Some girls have shared their personal stories about harassment by male peers on the way to school, stating that some girls completely stop attending school due to the harassment. Parents shut down complaints raised by their daughters by saying "dont tell others its shameful" rather than addressing the issue.
I am working with the students, to help them use their creativity to raise awareness through posters and inforgraphs. The students have chosen to target the main two issues of eve-teasing and smoking, posters for which are shown. I have been working around the clock to make these posters into illustrations for printing. 
Currently studying Materials Science at Imperial College.
I have a strong passion for helping my local community in Bangladesh. While I may have not been born or raised there, I think this is a really good opportunity to understand what vulenerable communities face and what I can do to support them.
