Global Human Rights Defence (ghrd) has been active in Bangladesh since 2003, conducting fact-finding missions and media monitoring on human rights abuses against minorities, women, and children. The organization investigates violence against ethnic and religious minorities or socially marginalized individuals and lobbies for change. In 2011, ghrd focused on human rights abuses against the indigenous Jumma in the Chittagong Hill Tracts region, revealing state actors were directly involved in the abuses. The report provides a brief background on the history and situation of minority groups in Bangladesh and recommendations for the government.
