Bangladesh

Jesmin Akter has worked as a diplomatic correspondent at Banglanews24.com based in Bangladesh since the year 2012. Banglanews24 is one of the leading online news websites that disseminates round-the-clock news in both Bangla and English in a highly interactive platform. Jesmin has been covering events related to migrant issues over the last three years. Every story that Jesmin has published relates to human rights and humanitarian issues prevalent in Bangladeshi Families. Jesmin has also covered on many immigration legalities and visa agency news in the past. She has also published reports on Bangladeshi women who have been sexually harassed in Saudi Arabia; the government then took steps in bringing the women back home. Jesmin expects to seek knowledge about migrant rights and issues from the DTP program. This would further enhance her skills to engage with government agencies and private sectors to shape policy and practice related to labour migration.
