Project Name : Friendship Fishermen’s Project

Doner : Friendship Luxembourg

Sector : Sustainable Economic Development

Area : Shyamnagar

Time Line : January 2022 to December 2022

Brief of activities :

Fishing in the Bay of Bengal is a hazardous occupation. Extreme climatic conditions can damage and destroy boats and equipment and can place livelihoods and lives at risk. Business is unstable because income depends on the fluctuating prices of fish in the market. Fishermen have been forced over generations to turn to local moneylenders for help and become trapped in permanent debts, as their income is insufficient to repay the high interest charges and loan capital. With the help of strong community involvement, we strive to liberate fishermen and their families from their debts to moneylenders, and to help create opportunities for them to generate a fair income.

Project Name : Friendship Renewable Energy Project

Doner : Friendship International

Sector : Sustainable Economic Development

Area : Shyamnagar

Time Line : January 2021 to December 2023

Brief of activities :

Friendship has developed a clean, environment friendly and low-cost solar panel that powers a lighting system. It is adapted to suit the needs of the char dwellers and is designed to replace the kerosene lamp, which is the traditional source of lighting in the rural areas of Bangladesh. The kerosene lamp is inefficient, unhealthy in closed spaces and unsafe since it is a dangerous source of fire. Friendship’s Solar Home System operates at the same cost to the user as the kerosene lamp and brings with it other advantages that greatly improve their standard of living. Friendship has distributed 138 solar systems in shyamnagar coastal areas.
