Sir Fazle Hasan Abed, the founder of BRAC, shared his viewpoint that women can carry burdens that men cannot, debunking the perception of their physical limitations. Recounting experiences from the 1974 famine, he observed how women persevered and took responsibility when men abandoned families, struggling to feed their malnourished children. Abed bhai learned that given opportunities, women can turn the impossible into possible. PHOTO: ARCHIVE
