Last 100 Meter Project

Last 100 Meter was a research-based project. This project was implemented to transform adolescent girls into a change agent to improve hygiene and sanitation behavior among the community people. It was a joint collaborative action of Manchester University, University of Dhaka, Brac University, Water Aid Bangladesh and DSK.

In 2019, after the closure of the Last 100 Meter, a “Koishar Agradoot Team (Team of advanced adolescents)”was formed by the adolescent group members. Presently, the group and their activities are supported by “Girls Mind Wash” project. Twenty-seven adolescent girls are active in “Koishar Agradoot” Team. In each of the areas, “Koisher Agradut” Team conducts monthly hygiene sessions. In the sessions, they discuss Dos and Don’ts related to safe water and sanitation.
