CAMPAIGNS

Rape Law Reform Now

Despite increasing reports of rape in the media, conviction rates remain low and rapists continue to enjoy impunity. The vast majority of rape victims and survivors are thus precluded from seeking justice, including the discrimination inherent in the existing rape laws and their application.

End Domestic Violence

BLAST is one of the largest legal services organisation in Bangladesh and has been providing free legal services for the poor since in 1993.
