Why Drishtipat in Boston?
Renowned for its cultural diversity, academics and young professionals,
Boston, is the perfect place to plant the seed for a new chapter
in Drishtipat. The city offers countless opportunities to help Drishtipat
continue to build on its strong recognition for the various human
rights initiatives that are essentially the driving forces behind
the organization.
Considered the center of the world’s intellectual community,
the greater metropolitan area of Boston is home to the leaders,
policy-makers and innovators of tomorrow. However, most of these
individuals remain in the dark not only about the various human
rights violations in Bangladesh, but are very often unaware of the
rich cultural and artistic heritage and traditions that Bangladesh
is about.
It is imperative to raise awareness among this
group of young professionals and students about Bangladesh, our
ideas, our values, our people, our lives, in addition to all the
various human rights issues that need immediate attention. In order
to harness the collective empathy of the intellectual community
in Boston towards action against these human rights violations,
in order to tap into the energy of the young minds gathered in the
city to train them to better our collective futures – we need
Drishtipat in Boston.
