Mahbub Alam Chashi

Mahbub Alam Chashi (Bengali: মাহবুব আলম চাষী) (1927–1983) was a renowned public official and social worker from Bangladesh. He pioneered the Swanirvar Movement, a 'basic need' centred approach to rural upliftment and community development, which attempted to include various groups within the village structure in Bangladesh.[1] Chashi also promoted the Rangunia model cooperatives in 1960s.[2] The Government of Bangladesh recognized his contributions to the national life by awarding him the Independence Day Award, the highest civilian award of the country, in 1977.[3]
