Dear Friend

I seen you add our name in SFD Bangladesh team page, thanks for that.
But there is a mistake in our organization name. Our organization name 
is Participatory Research & Action Network-PRAN; not Participatory 
Action and Research Network - PRAN. We'll happy if you put our correct 
name in the page.

Please keep in touch.

Regards

Nurul Alam Masud
Chief Executive

Participatory Research & Action Network-PRAN
House # 08, Road # 30
Maijdee Housing Estate, Maijdee Noakhali.
Bangladesh.
