Another seven days of bringing positive change
This week started on a solemn note... Over the weekend, nearly 12,000 people, more than half of them women and children, at Mirpur‛s Jhilpar Slum lost their homes to a devastating fire. The incident is a stern reminder that we will not achieve SDGs without making “cities inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable”. Our LIUPC team is already on the ground assessing the situation and working with DNCC and government to improve their living conditions. A shout out to the team for keeping true to our motto of “LEAVING NO ONE BEHIND” On a lighter note... we also hit the 200K likes on our facebook page this week. So a shout out to all our colleagues who have shared our page and content allowing this achievement!!!
Not only in the capital... we are also working in other urban hubs. Illuminate and Ashek Bhai visited Chittagong, sat with the mayor and our team, visited the slums at east Bakulia on the edge of Karnaphuli river and prepared an action plan in consultation with CDC members. Our internal sources confirmed that the visit, although effective, was not all work and no play... Illuminate apparently loved the Mezbani beef!!!
VISUAL QUIZ - The “BLUE” effect

After FTA
In a visit to the house of a member of our top management, we were taken by surprise with the presence of these two portraits hanging on the walls in the private library... getting on the good books is one thing but this is ridiculous!!! Jokes apart... Our very own Sayma Abed and Mustafizur Rahaman (THE SILENT KILLERS) deserve a shout out for being the first two to get their supervisor to take time out from his busy schedule and complete their mid-term PMD review. CONGRATS!!!
P.S.
As you all know, the Dengue crisis is still growing and citizen action is required along with that of the city corporations to tackle the situation. It is time to act... Remember to keep your locality clean... if possible... organise regular fumigation drives... involve your communities... it is time to contribute on the personal level...
