Rubana Huq, a Bangladeshi entrepreneur, writer and philanthropist, has been selected to participate in BBC’s 100 Women conference.
Rubana is currently the managing director of Mohammadi Group and has written extensively on the RMG sector.
The BBC’s 100 Women programme has been running this whole month as a gesture to recognise ground-breaking works of women all over the world, further highlighting the numerous social and cultural challenges they face in their work.
On Friday, Rubana and the 99 other women from all across the world were scheduled to come together at BBC’s London headquarters for an entire day of debate and discussion.
Prior to this conference, in a letter addressed to her 99 peers, Rubana wrote of the plight of Bangladeshi garment workers: “Women in Bangladesh are survivors and we move on with hope.”
On her Facebook page, Rubana wrote that she was: “so looking forward to joining as one of BBC’s chosen 100 women global conversation on 25th Oct in London!”
The women who have been selected come from an array of professional fields including music, health, writing, and journalism.
