Bangladesh
are a poverty-stricken country and the main causes of poverty are it’s
overpopulation, unemployment, lack of education and awareness and finally,
socio-political injustices which have caused the mass socio-economic poor
condition of the nation.
Rajshahi
and Rangpur divisions are the poorer than the other divisions. Consequently,
the population of these areas occasionally becomes the victims of natural
calamities such as Drought, Floods, Heavy Rain Falls, River Erosion, Common
Diseases etc. Due to this, the people of these areas are socio-economically in
bad condition. Illiteracy, Unemployment, Unawareness, Mal-nutrition and in
healthy situations are prevailing all over the areas. As a result, the majority
of the people live below living standards. Besides, the gender situation is
also not good due to social mal-practices. The majority of the women section is
abused and tortured mentally and physically. On the other side, most of the
children are mal-nourished and sometimes become victims of trafficking and
child labor.
By
observing and understanding all the above stated miserable conditions and
realities several enthusiastic, energetic and social-minded young men came
forward to volunteer. Their services for the needy people and established an
Organization named “Association for Rural Peoples Advancement (ARPA)” as of
December 2009.
