Minhaz Samad Chowdhury (Bengali: মিনহাজ সামাদ চৌধুরী) is a Bangladeshi human rights defender known for his unwavering commitment to safeguarding the rights of marginalized communities and promoting institutional democracy and good governance. Chowdhury embarked on his mission as an independent advocate on September 21, 2007, and has since been a relentless voice against state violence targeting minorities in Bangladesh.

His civic vision for Bangladesh is one where human rights are upheld and respected, creating a foundation for a prosperous and inclusive society. One of Chowdhury's significant initiatives is "One World, One Identity, One Curriculum," which aims to ensure equal access to quality education for all children, regardless of their background.

Central to his advocacy is the establishment of a robust protection system for minority communities in Bangladesh, ensuring their safety and security amid challenging circumstances. Additionally, Chowdhury passionately champions the ambitious initiative of "Reunification of Great India: A Vision of 2050," driven by a desire for regional harmony and prosperity.

He firmly believes in the "Eight Pillars of Good Governance: Building a Better Society," advocating for transparent, accountable, and responsive governance to foster sustainable development and social welfare.

Chowdhury's activism extends beyond Bangladesh's borders, as he has been deeply involved in advocating for women's rights in Afghanistan, standing against the suppression imposed by the Taliban.

Furthermore, Chowdhury has actively appealed to the European Union for a Visa Policy that would provide protection and support to religious minorities in Bangladesh, recognizing the need for international collaboration in promoting human rights.

Throughout his career, Minhaz Samad Chowdhury has demonstrated remarkable dedication and passion in his pursuit of justice, equality, and human rights, leaving a lasting impact on the lives of countless individuals both in Bangladesh and beyond.
