Hosne Ara Asma, known as Asma, has been a THP animator in Bangladesh since 1997. After taking part in THP’s special women leaders’ training, she now regularly arranges courtyard meetings on issues such as sanitation, early marriage, nutrition and gender equality. In cooperation with other animators, Asma also runs three adult education centers.
In Bangladesh, the training of local activists, called “animators,” is key to all of our activities. Animator trainings are highly empowering, inspiring, and motivational training programs.
