With this blog we are trying to describe the livelihood of slum dwellers in different towns in Bangladesh, including Narayanganj, Jamalpur, Mymensingh and the capital Dhaka. We would like to show you their daily routine, their areas and places of living and to share with you their struggles, their hopes and fears in the hope you realize - like us - that poor people are not just numbers in statistics but human beings.
