3 children die every hour in Bangladesh from accidental injuries, including drowning, burns, electrocution and in road traffic.

These tragedies leave behind heartbreak and broken families. Our research has shown a lack of awareness of what causes injuries, along with a fatalistic attitude that injuries are inevitable, severely exacerbates the problems.

Women and Children First, with our partners BADAS-PCP and UCL, adapted community groups to address the issue. The findings show incredible potential for them to work.
