On 14 January 2008, Work for a Better Bangladesh organized a roundtable on “The negative effects of TV and our children”, at which our publication on the subject was released.  At the roundtable, 35 organizations working on children’s issues attended.  In addition, a representative from the Ministry of Women’s and Children’s Affairs attended.  The issue was covered in nine newspapers, and two papers later wrote editorials on the need for outdoor recreational opportunities for children.  In addition, the Childs’ Rights Advocacy Forum sent a letter to WBB expressing an interest in working with us on the issue.  (This is a gender issue because while boys often manage to find a place to play, many girls are stuck indoors and suffer greatly from lack of social and recreational opportunities.)
