We are committed to solve the unemployment problem of the transgender people in Bangladesh. The neglected minorities are forced to do odd jobs which provide meager income. This causes to lead them a humble life. Our proposal aims at establishing a platform where we provide transgender employees to different companies or organization. The solution creates decent job opportunities for the transgender people. They can live a dignified life. Manpower will increase in industrial sectors and economy will get a boost. The lives of the people of Bangladesh will improve. Discrimination against the minorities will be mitigated.

An estimate of 10000 to half a million people in Bangladesh belong to the third gender. Social ostracism causes them to leave home. Deprived of the fundamental human rights, they slip into sex trade. Some pick up begging while others sing and dance at different occasions. These jobs make them unreliable in the eyes of common people.95% of the transgender have no access to basic education, nutritious food, medical facilities and job opportunities. The conservative mindset of the people hinders their establishment as normal human beings. These are the factors which led to our solution.

We intend to work with the transgender population of the country. They have always been a neglected minority, always subjected to shame and discrimination. They are given no respect and have always been shunned from society. Without the opportunity at a proper education, and the ill treatment of employers, they almost always have to resort to means of income that are considered undignified. At this point, what is most important is to them is to provide them with employment that is respectable and is a stable source of income. That is what our project aims to do. It will help them address their financial needs and help them sustain a life that is not constantly subjected to embarrassment.

We are proposing an app. People who want their goods to be delivered at home and those who want workers for warehouse can connect through the app. The app will help them to communicate with transgender employees who will either work as delivery person or warehouse managers. Various companies looking for workers for different services can also get help through this app. The app will work as a job portal for the transgender people who are willing to work and the people who want to get their job done. Since the common people don’t trust them as a decent service holder, the app plays the role of a verified source. The modern people use apps for a fast and hassle free service. Online marketing is spreading fast. E-commerce has become a booming sector in Bangladesh.  So appointing the transgender people in delivery service and warehouse management can ensure them good paying jobs. It will give them the opportunity to get involved in mainstream business. This technology based solution will establish economic development as well as human rights for the transgender community of Bangladesh.
