Who We Are

AMUS is a national NGO and is permitted to work throughout Bangladesh. It was established in 1991 with the aim of establishing the poor and vulnerable women and children in society by making them capable and self-sufficient through building capacity, institutions, capital, utilization of local resources, and implementing felt-need-based problem solving programs. involving the necessary skilled, trained, and experienced staff.

We believe in a holistic approach to development, intervention, and programs that address immediate needs as well as ensuring future sustainability of the development. The programs utilize a combination of activities from the core development areas of social and human rights development, economic development, and welfare development to meet beneficiaries’ needs.

Regular group meetings, seminars, and workshops play a significant role in group development. Groups meet fortnightly for savings mobilization and capacity building. After these training activities and access to IGA activities, group members are provided micro-credit for attaining self-sufficiency and reliance. Education is the cornerstone of AMUS programs. Women and children are given life-oriented skills education.
