Ijaz Mahmud, Teach for Bangladesh

Bengalis of New York

Season 4 - Episode 15: So we know that it is not possible to reach 100% of the students and provide 100. So, therefore, we are essentially trying to reach out to as many students as possible. From the very recent data extracted last week, I know that 3,200 students among 4,000 are within our reach. So what we are doing is taking the software email in their mobile app and installing it into their mobile app in the slum area. Our model is also to expand the opportunity of education. It is a considerable concern for us, not only to give them lessons but also to keep them in the schools because there has been a significant migration. Right now, most of the people from the talent area who have income, they've been moving towards the village.
