Habitat for Humanity Bangladesh has been partnering with low-income families to build strength, stability, self-reliance and shelter over the last two decades. With people at the center of our holistic approach, we are committed to working with the Bangladesh government, local organizations, communities and volunteers to improve the lives of vulnerable families by removing the barriers that stand between them and a decent, healthy place to call home. Habitat’s programs help change living conditions, providing the foundation for families to improve their health, educational and economic prospects. Putting people at the center, Habitat Bangladesh provides housing solutions that suit different families' circumstances and needs. Homeowners play an active role by contributing their own labor, known as sweat equity, to construct their homes.
