Nazma Akter given Female Leader of the Year award

On October 10, 2013, the German ASTRAIA Foundation awarded its Female Leader of the Year Award to Nazma Akter, one of the most well-known and respected labor activists in Bangladesh, for her tireless efforts to educate female garment workers in Bangladesh about their rights.

The ASTRAIA Foundation presents its Female Leader of the Year Award in October to commemorate the International Day of the Girl Child and raise awareness of the continuing discrimination, abuse, and poverty to which women across the world are subject. 

The ASTRAIA Foundation, which works towards the goal "Together for more future female leaders," honored Nazma Akter's a boundless energy and determination to fight against poverty and injustice and help other women.
