Chief Adviser Muhammad Yunus today urged the country’s women to come forward to materialising the dream of building a new Bangladesh.
“The new generation of women has the potential to create exemplary history before the world,” he said while speaking at a women’s conference held at Osmani Memorial Auditorium in the capital this afternoon.
“The girls of other countries cannot show the strength and courage that the girls of Bangladesh have shown in the July-August revolution,” he said.
The Women and Children Affairs Ministry and the Social Welfare Ministry jointly organised the conference making the Human Rights Day and the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women.
Chaired by Women and Children Affairs Adviser Sharmeen S Murshid, the conference was addressed, among others, by Women and Children Affairs Secretary Mamtaz Ahmed and girls who led the July-August revolution.
