My name is Akhlakuzzaman Khan, and I am from Bangladesh. I work in digital media and have done so for 10 years. I have worked as a producer, scriptwriter, videographer, video editor, and director in media agencies, research groups, and non-profit organizations.

I have a special project in mind. I want to record videos of the rich cultures, lives, and traditions of endangered ethnic and marginal communities. I will then create a free online platform to share these videos. This platform will be for researchers, students, and anyone interested in learning about these cultures.
I plan to film the daily lives, songs, traditions, and important cultural aspects of the people living on the edges of society in Bangladesh. I believe their unique cultures are at risk due to fast modernization, globalization, environmental changes, and the strong influence of nearby communities' cultures, especially through social media.
I need financial help to buy video production equipment to make my dream come true. Your support is essential to preserving and celebrating the vibrant cultures of Bangladesh for both local and global audiences.
