Changing a national mindset

In order to change a national mindset, Telenor and UNICEF are focusing on three key areas in their campaign to help children in Bangladesh: Educating children, educating the social workers and educating society. Through training programs, shelters, school support, peer educators better informed social workers and nationwide media campaigns, Telenor and UNICEF are not only helping children to better understand their rights, but they are also helping the country at large understand a child’s right to a childhood.


It is really encouraging to see such  big companies putting their hands forward for such important cause of our society. Telenor or Grameen phone as it is known in Bangladesh is a mobile phone operator is working jointly with UNICEF to eradicate child labour. Though the task may be a difficult one but none the less it can be achieved.
