Dhaka, Bangladesh – 11th September 2024 – Today marks the launch of Jonogon, a groundbreaking platform committed to empowering individuals and communities in Bangladesh to create positive change through collective action. Built with the vision of making a more equitable and compassionate society, Jonogon seeks to ensure that no one is powerless and that every voice is heard.
A Platform for Change Jonogon is designed to enable people from all walks of life to raise their voices on issues that matter to them. The platform provides tools for individuals and communities to mobilize support, drive awareness, and hold decision-makers accountable. Whether it's addressing local concerns, national issues, or global causes, Jonogon empowers users to take action and effect meaningful change.
“We believe that collective power can drive significant change,” said Hussain Mohammed Elius, spokesperson for Jonogon. “Jonogon exists to give every individual in Bangladesh the opportunity to be heard, to mobilize others, and to impact decisions that shape their lives. Our vision is to create a more just and compassionate society where everyone’s voice matters.”
Ensuring Accountability and Trust At Jonogon, user verification is a priority. All users are verified through their phone numbers using One-Time Passwords (OTPs), ensuring that every participant on the platform is a real individual, which fosters trust and credibility across all campaigns.
“We are committed to building a secure and reliable platform,” added Hussain Mohammed Elius. “By verifying our users through their phone numbers and OTPs, we ensure that every voice raised on Jonogon comes from a verified and authentic source, adding a layer of accountability and trust to the movements and causes they support.”
An Open-Source Community Built by Many Jonogon is proudly an open-source platform, developed by a team of dedicated contributors from across the globe. With over 1,600 community members already involved, Jonogon has fostered a collaborative environment where developers, activists, and everyday users come together to create a platform that embodies the values of transparency, inclusivity, and collective power.
“Jonogon is built by the people, for the people,” explained Hussain Mohammed Elius. “Our open-source nature ensures that anyone with the passion and skills can contribute to the platform’s development. This spirit of collaboration is essential to the success and continued evolution of Jonogon as we strive to make an impact on society.”
Leveraging Technology for Empowerment Jonogon leverages cutting-edge technology to connect people with the causes they care about. By simplifying the process of creating petitions, organizing events, and rallying support, the platform makes it easier than ever for users to take meaningful action. Whether advocating for policy reforms, holding corporations accountable, or raising awareness of community issues, Jonogon serves as a powerful tool for social activism.
