After the AGM from 3 - 4pm, Ruhul Abdin from Paraa will give a lecture about their work.
Paraa is a London based charitable organisation which works to develop the built environment of various communities in Bangladesh. The country is among the least developed countries with a high population density vulnerable to natural disasters due to climate change. They provide expertise to various communities that will enable dwellers to maximise space usage for a better standard of living. Paraa believe in the development of a built environment that respects the cultural and traditional architecture and it's context.
There will also be a show of some of the garments and designs that have been produced as part of the Benarasi project as well as an exhibition of other images. http://paraa.org.uk/
