BRAC Bank Limited launched a Women’s Forum titled “Tara” for facilitating career development and professional excellence through sharing of experience and networking among women bankers of the bank.

The objective of the forum is to make BRAC Bank the most woman friendly bank in Bangladesh. With more than 1,150 members, Tara is the largest private sector women bankers’ network in the country.

Rokia Afzal Rahman, former Advisor to the Caretaker Government, and Selim R.F. Hussain, Managing Director, BRAC Bank Limited, formally launched the BRAC Bank Women’s Forum at Bashundhara Convention City in Dhaka.

Tara will be a platform where BRAC Bank’s female employees will share challenges and concerns that they may face within or outside the bank. The women can raise their issues through Tara Helpline.

A Tara website will be launched where the women community will get information and expert assistance on education, career, health, household, lifestyle and other realms of women’s lives. As a member of BRAC Family, BRAC Bank always works for women rights, women empowerment, and ensures enabling workplace environment for women employees.
