Food Security, Livelihoods and Gender

Ashika Development Associates is a non-profit organization focused on food security, livelihoods, and gender in the Chittagong Hill Tracts of Bangladesh.

The organization works closely with local communities, government agencies and other stakeholders to ensure that their efforts are sustainable and effective.
