BANGLADESH SLUM STORIES
BATHING IN FEAR AND ENDANGER GIRL’S LIVES


"In the past, when girls encountered injustice, they were afraid and kept their voices silent. Now they are brave; they dare to defend themselves because they know it is their right to do so." Marin shared.

Marin is a 19-year-old girl who lives in the Dhaplur slum. One of the biggest bathing spaces in her locality is located next to a dusty construction site, and everyone can easily spy on the girls, even filming and taking photos. Marin shared that her neighbour was secretly filmed by a construction worker while she was taking a bath, and he even blackmailed and threatened her to upload the video onto the Internet. Fortunately, the girl fought back bravely and reported the case to the police.


All ages and genders have to take showers in the common areas

Marin once learned about children's rights and girls' rights through Plan International’s projects. Realising her rights, she shared knowledge about menstruation on local radio, hoping to eliminate traditional prejudices and gradually remove the stigma of menstruation.
