History
Dr. Qazi Faruque Ahmed established Proshika in 1977 to train, educate, promote micro-finance to improve economy and increase social empowerment. The name comes from the Bengali words for training (proshikkhan), education (shikkha), and work (kaj). The NGO had a 30-member general body which elects a nine-member governing body. The next day workers of Proshika were arrested. Empowerment through Law of the Common People organized a Human Rights school for law school students from Bangladesh, India, and Nepal at the Proshika HRDC, Koitta, Manikganj District. ==References==
