UCEP Bangladesh has designed and piloted an innovative 100 hours’ curriculum (13 days) over a period of 3 month under a training course titled “Workplace Wellbeing Management”. This course is part of UCEP’s NUFFIC-NICHE SRHR Project that emphasizes the emotional wellbeing of workers of RMG sector in Bangladesh. The project is being conducted with the technical support of Rutgers, Netherlands, and BRAC IED.
