Narir Rater Adda (Breaking the patriarchal taboo and promote women’s mobility)
Pragroshor works towards changing the conditions of a patriarchal society that allows, albeit perpetuates, sexual and gender-based violence through feminist conscious-raising. It organizes dialogues, discussions, and mobilizations on gender, feminism, and transformative leadership using novel methods of engagement, for students, activists, women’s groups/forums, and families of SGBV
survivors. It also creates and curates a safe space where survivors and other allies can rest, work, seek guidance, engage with each other and collectively work towards promoting gender justice in the community and society at large. Based on these proposed activities, “Narir Raater Adda” is a part of the larger feminist movement. That’s why we wanted to create such a space where women and girls can feel comfortable and strong. We choose not to make it very structured and formal. Over the last five years we have been successfully organizing it. We have a plan and topic for every adda. However, the participants are welcome to bring forward their individual topics and stories. At the same way we have an adda where we invited female entrepreneurs for sharing, inspiring and disseminating their life stories moreover their struggling periods towards our beneficiaries who wants to become female entrepreneur. It was really a knowledge sharing event where different types of women came together for getting inspiration from senior’s entrepreneurs who lead a successful period in their life.
