HELVETAS Swiss Intercooperation Bangladesh is a non-profitable organization. It has been working across the world. Helvetas also worked in Bangladesh since 2000, where it advocate for the rural inhabitants to participate in the economy and local governance. One focus is on promoting women to take an active part in public and economic life. It persuades and enables them to run for local elections and to join women’s organizations to put their concerns across more effectively at the regional and national levels. The communal authorities are important partners as well. They introduce democratic decision-making processes, establish professional financial management and lawfully collect taxes to finance public services.
