About Us
Emergence of BISAP
BISAP (Bangladesh Integrated Social Advancement Programme) is a non-political, non-profit, secular, and non-governmental development organization established in 1989. BISAP was founded by a group of committed social workers, philanthropists, and educationists in response to the urgent needs of marginalized communities in Bangladesh. The organization addresses endemic poverty characterized by landlessness, unemployment, illiteracy, malnutrition, social inertia, and vulnerability to frequent natural disasters.
Since its inception, BISAP has been dedicated to improving the quality of life for underprivileged populations through a diverse range of programs, including Climate Justice, Environmental Protection, Community Health, Food Security, Carbon Credit Initiatives, Gender Equity, Child Protection, Capacity Building, Human Rights Advocacy, HIV/STI/AIDS Prevention, Nature-Based Solutions, and Disaster Mitigation and Preparedness.
As a national organization, BISAP is committed to serving distressed populations while advocating with government agencies and development partners for sustainable improvements in their lives. The organization takes a unique, evidence-based approach to address complex population challenges, providing innovative solutions that are both inclusive and impactful.
BISAP strives to empower communities through participatory development practices and by building their resilience against socio-economic and environmental vulnerabilities. Furthermore, the organization collaborates with stakeholders and policymakers to ensure informed decision-making and policy formulation that align with the needs of its target groups.
Over the years, BISAP has emerged as a leader in social advancement, consistently working to create a more equitable, sustainable, and resilient society.
