In Bangladesh, where legal literacy is still low, paralegals play a crucial role in simplifying and making the law understandable to everyone. They function inside communities, providing direction and assistance to individuals who may be intimidated by formal legal establishments.
ILO with its partners Workers Resource Centre (WRC) and Bangladesh Legal Aid and Services Trust (BLAST) conducted a training for Paralegal to build their capacity and provide better aid to workers in accessing justice under Advancing Decent Work in Bangladesh Funded by Denmark.
The Workers Resource Centre (WRC) was established in 2017 as part of the ILO’s SDIR (Social Dialogue and Industrial Relations) project, which was funded by Denmark, with the aim of fostering effective collective bargaining (CB) and guaranteeing both workers’ rights and corporate productivity.
Denmark remains dedicated to upholding workers’ rights and establishing decent work for all.
