Kaathpencil support to promote awareness on freedom of expression, human rights, and digital safety.

As part of the Swadhinata Project,Our General Secretary, Hasibur Rahman Midul, facilitated a Half-Day Orientation on “Human Rights, Misinformation, Disinformation, and Digital Safety for marginalized and minority communities in the era of freedom of expression" was held on 5 May 2026 at NGO forum ,lalmatiya,Dhaka.

The interactive session focused on participatory discussions around freedom of expression, identifying misinformation, digital security, and preventing online violence. Participants actively shared their experiences, ideas, and community perspectives throughout the program.

The orientation created a participatory space where participants shared their experiences, explored community challenges, and discussed ways to build safer and more informed digital communities.

This initiative was organized by Breaking the Silence and Manusher Jonno Foundation, with support from Plan International Netherlands and funded by the European Union.

We believe initiatives like this play an important role in strengthening youth awareness, critical thinking, and community resilience in the digital age.

KaathPencil members participated in a three-day training held from 26–28 April 2026 titled “Speak Up! Empowering CSOs to Protect Children and Youth Freedom of Expression by Capitalizing on the Opportunities and Addressing the Challenges of the Digital Space in Bangladesh.”

The training was organized by Incidine Bangladesh, supported by Terre des Hommes Netherlands, and funded by the European Union. It took place at NGO Forum.

Throughout the three days, participants gained in-depth knowledge on the roles of Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) in advocacy, accountability, and human rights, with a special focus on child rights, freedom of expression, and online safety. The sessions also explored how to leverage opportunities in the digital space while addressing its risks and challenges, particularly for children and youth.

KaathPencil members gained valuable insights, practical skills, and shared experiences that will strengthen our ongoing work in areas such as child rights, gender equality, and climate justice.

We believe that such initiatives play a vital role in building informed, skilled, and responsible youth, contributing to a safer and more inclusive society.

The Health Protection Foundation, in collaboration with UNICEF, the Expanded Programme on Immunization (EPI), and the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare of Bangladesh, continues to work towards strengthening immunization activities across the country. The program was jointly organized by UNICEF and the Health Protection Foundation to raise awareness about the importance of vaccination. KaathPencil attended the event as youth representatives and actively participated in discussions on the significance of immunization. We highlighted the importance of vaccines in reducing child mortality, particularly in preventing deaths caused by measles outbreaks. We also discussed the role of EPI in modernizing immunization services, including advancements in app development for better vaccine delivery and tracking.

Additionally, we addressed the role of young people in combating misinformation and propaganda related to vaccines. We shared ideas on how to engage and motivate youth to promote immunization within their communities. Furthermore, we discussed the WHO initiative focusing on “zero-dose children” and emphasized the importance of reaching those who have not received any vaccines.

The event was attended by distinguished members from WHO and UNICEF, along with youth representatives and school students, making it a meaningful platform for collaboration and awareness-building.
