Bangladesh Poribesh Andolon (BAPA) is a common forum of citizens and organizations concerned with the environment of Bangladesh. A community-based group, called POROSH, was set up as such a forum concentrating on Dhaka only in 1997. This has virtually been transformed into BAPA in 2000 with nation-wide coverage and expanded dimension. BAPA, acting as a pressure group against any kind of environment degradation, is trying to create a broad-based citizen's movement for protection and betterment of environment in Bangladesh. It organizes seminars, meetings, conferences and workshops to draw attention to general and specific problems in environment and educate the public on such issues.
