Message from the msf Founder President

Welcome to the Manabadhikar Shongskriti Foundation (msf), a dedicated platform for nurturing a culture of human rights in Bangladesh.

Since our formal inception on 1 September 2019, with the generous support of the National Endowment for Democracy (NED), msf has been steadfast in its mission to uphold, protect, and promote human rights nationwide. We are proud to be a collective effort, supported by our committed Executive Committee of nine members and twelve General Members, who share a common vision for a just and equitable society where each individual is accountable for creating a social culture that respects human rights culture.

At msf, we believe that the foundation of a thriving democracy is rooted in the respect for human rights and the dignity of every individual. Our work encompasses raising awareness, empowering Human Rights Defenders, and addressing injustices through evidence-based advocacy and actions. From monitoring violations to fostering solidarity among human rights defenders, our journey is one of resilience, hope, and unwavering commitment to social justice.

As we continue to expand our initiatives, we invite you to join us in this critical endeavor. Whether through partnership, support or simply sharing our vision, your involvement strengthens our collective impact. Together, we can build a society where equality, freedom, human dignity, and justice are not mere aspirations but lived realities.

Thank you for visiting our website and for your interest in msf. Let us work together to create a Bangladesh where human rights are not just ideals but the cornerstone of our shared future.

With hope and determination

Sultana Kamal
