The issues of economic and social justice underlie all of WBB’s work. WBB also works specifically on gender, including trying to address root causes for gender-based violence. WBB has conducted research on the economic contribution of women through their household work, and seeks to show the value of women’s time, the importance of their contribution through that work, and the fact that women subsidize the entire economy of Bangladesh by engaging in the household work that is the foundation of all other economic activity.
