The women's wing (Bengali: মহিলা বিভাগ) of the Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami was established on 1979. It works to organize female members and supporters of the party and focuses on social welfare, education, religious activities, women's rights from an Islamic perspective, and community development.[1]
The women's wing operates across Bangladesh through district, metropolitan, and local committees and participates in educational, charitable, and political awareness programs. It also supports the broader organizational and ideological activities of Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami.
History
The women's organizational structure of Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami developed after the reorganization of the party following the restoration of political activities in Bangladesh during the late 1970s. It became one of the major affiliated wings of the party alongside labor, student, farmer, and professional organizations.
