Where We Work

GRAUS has a strong footprint across the Bandarban District, operating in all seven upazilas. Its Head Office is located in Bandarban Sadar (Maung Villa, Uzani Para, Bandarban Municipality), supported by six Sub-Offices in Naikhyongchhari, Alikadam, Lama, Thanchi, Ruma, and Rowangchhari. Through this network, the organization actively covers 33 unions across Bandarban Sadar, Rowangchhari, Naikhyongchhari, Lama, Ruma, and Thanchi – ensuring outreach to remote valleys, borderlands, and river basins.

In Khagrachhari District, GRAUS currently works in Dighinala, Matiranga, Khagrachhari Sadar, Mahalchhari, and Lakshmichhari upazilas, strengthening community resilience through inclusive education, health, and livelihood programs. Within this challenging landscape, GRAUS extends its coverage to disadvantaged communities, building bridges between diverse ethnic groups and empowering families through inclusive education, health services, and sustainable livelihoods. By reaching remote upazilas and borderland villages, GRAUS ensures that even the most marginalized populations are part of a shared journey toward resilience, equity, and progress.

Previously, GRAUS also implemented initiatives in Kaptai and Rajasthali upazilas of Rangamati District, focusing on education, watershed co‑management, and village court programs. These efforts contributed to sustainable resource management and improved local governance in lakeside and hill communities.

By working across Bandarban, Khagrachhari, and Rangamati, GRAUS demonstrates its commitment to holistic development in the Chittagong Hill Tracts – fostering equity, resilience, and empowerment in one of Bangladesh’s most diverse and challenging regions.
