The British Asian Trust has appointed Eshrat Waris as its first Bangladesh Director.
The British Asian Trust was founded in 2007 by King Charles III, together with leading British Asian business leaders. To date the Trust has supported more than 12 million people across South Asia and is now committed to ensuring greater growth and impact in Bangladesh, says a press release.
With over a decade in the climate tech and development industries, Eshrat has played a pivotal role in community-based programmes that create lasting social impact. She has worked for the World Bank, BRAC and SOLshare.
Eshrat will be guided and supported by the British Asian Trust's Bangladesh Advisory Council led by Shayan F Rahman, CEO of BEXIMCO Group.
Shayan F Rahman, Chair of the Bangladesh Advisory Council, said, "We are delighted to have appointed Eshrat as our first ever Director in Bangladesh. With her wealth of experience, she will play a key role in driving the substantial growth of our programmes in Bangladesh."
