The University of Dhaka signed two separate Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs) on Monday with Amra Nari and Academy of Garments Technology Bangladesh (GarmentTechBD) to strengthen collaboration in education, research, skills development, women’s empowerment, youth leadership, and industry-academia engagement.
The agreements were signed on behalf of their respective organizations by University Treasurer Professor Dr. M. Jahangir Alam Chowdhury, Founder and Chief Coordinator of Amra Nari M M Jahidur Rahman, and Strategic Partner of GarmentTechBD Dr. Henry Su.

Under the agreement with Amra Nari, collaborative programs will be launched in women’s empowerment, youth leadership development, public health awareness, research, cultural activities, and community development. Students will have opportunities to participate as volunteers, interns, or project assistants, while faculty members may contribute as advisers, trainers, mentors, and research collaborators.
