Young Japanese rovers have got the opportunity to stay and work in a different culture on ORT and other health issues. Young Japanese rovers have gained the experience of working on health issues in remote areas in Bangladesh.

ACHIEVEMENT AND CONCLUSION (Continued) Living and working together in unfamiliar circumstance, Japanese rovers have developed a high level of interpersonal skills. The project has strengthened the bond of universal brotherhood between young people of Japan and Bangladesh.
