UNICEF video news package English voice-over mono mix • Running Time 2’02 • Narrator Name Rachel Bonham Carter Script You’re watching UNICEF Television. Life is different now in Rupnagar. Thanks to 17 year old Doly Akter and her friends of the adolescent girls’ club, this once filthy and disease-ridden slum on the outskirts of Dhaka in Bangladesh is clean and sanitary. Doly and her friends instruct their neighbours in good hygiene and monitor their habits. SOUNDBITE (BANGLA) Doly Akter, 17: “We observe which family drinks safe water and which does not, and which family uses hygienic latrines. Also we monitor which family members cut their nails and if there have been any cases of diarrhea in children under five recently.” Doly’s work does not stop at health and hygiene, her group also deals with wider social issues like early marriage and school drop-outs. SOUNDBITE (BANGLA) Doly Akter, 17: “While trying to improve these small things like sanitation and safe drinking water, we are addressing and solving the bigger social problems. It helps us improve the environment and quality of our life.” Halima’s parents had arranged for her to be married at 14. Doly’s outreach visits helped change their minds. Early marriages are now rare in Doly’s neighbourhood, unlike elsewhere in Bangladesh where two-thirds of girls are married before they turn 18. SOUNDBITE (BANGLA) Doly Akter, 17: “We have to develop the mentality amongst adolescents that they can do something. Then, we will be able to unite together. If we can bring together, say 10 or 12 of us, we’ll be strong.” As Doly inspires others around her to improve their lives, the benefits which are now appreciated by her neighbours and their families will, Doly hopes, reach beyond her slum and touch a wider society, improving life for hundreds more.

Grâce à Doly Akter, une jeune fille de 17 ans, et à ses amies du club des adolescentes, ce bidonville hier envahi par les ordures et ravagé par la maladie a été nettoyé et assaini. Doly et ses amies donnent des conseils de bonne hygiène à leurs voisins et surveillent leurs habitudes. INSERT SONORE (BANGLA) Doly Akter, 17 ans : « Nous regardons pour savoir quelle famille boit de l’eau qui est potable, quelle famille ne le fait pas, quelle famille utilise des latrines hygiéniques… Nous vérifions aussi quels membres de la familles se coupent les ongles et s’il y a eu récemment des cas de diarrhée chez les enfants de moins de cinq ans. » Le travail de Doly ne se limite pas à la santé et à l’hygiène, son groupe s’occupe aussi de questions sociales plus générales comme celles des mariages précoces et des enfants qui abandonnent l’école. INSERT SONORE (BANGLA) Doly Akter, 17 ans : « En essayant d’améliorer la situation pour de petites choses comme l’assainissement et l’eau potable, nous nous attaquons aux problèmes sociaux plus généraux. Ceci nous aide à améliorer l’environnement et notre qualité de vie. » Les parents d’Halima lui avaient arrangé un mariage pour ses 14 ans. Les visites effectuées par Doly dans le cadre de son travail de proximité ont permis de les faire changer d’avis. Les mariages précoces sont aujourd’hui devenus rares dans le quartier de Doly, par contraste avec le reste du Bangladesh où deux tiers des filles sont mariées avant l’âge de 18 ans. INSERT SONORE (BANGLA) Doly Akter, 17 ans : « Il faut faire comprendre aux adolescents que leurs interventions peuvent être efficaces. Nous pourrons alors unir nos forces. Si un certain nombre d’entre nous, 10 ou 12 filles, s’associent, cela devient une force. » Á mesure que Doly encourage de plus en plus de gens autour d’elle à améliorer leur condition, elle espère que les avantages dont bénéficient aujourd’hui ses voisins et leurs familles s’étendent au-delà de son bidonville et se répandent plus largement dans la société pour donner à des centaines d’autres personnes une vie meilleure. Spanish Language Version Running time: 1:58 Script La vida es ahora diferente en Rupnagar. Gracias a Doly Akter, una joven de 17 años, y a sus amigas y amigos del club de adolescentes, lo que en tiempos fue una barriada sucia y arrasada por las enfermedades a las afueras de Dhaka, en Bangladesh, es ahora un lugar limpio y saneado. Doly y sus amigas instruyen a sus vecinos sobre cuestiones de higiene y controlan sus hábitos para mantenerla. SOUNDBITE de Doly Akter, 17 años (en BANGLA): “Vigilamos qué familia bebe agua potable y cuál no, y qué familia utiliza letrinas higiénicas. También controlamos qué miembros de la familia se cortan las uñas y si ha habido algún caso reciente de diarrea entre los menores de cinco años”. El trabajo de Doly no se limita a los asuntos de salud e higiene; su grupo también se hace cargo de problemas de más alcance social, como el matrimonio prematuro y el abandono escolar. SOUNDBITE de Doly Akter, 17 años: “Al mismo tiempo que tratamos de mejorar los problemas sanitarios y del agua potable, también tenemos que abordar y resolver los problemas sociales de más importancia. Eso nos ayuda a mejorar el medio ambiente y nuestra calidad de vida”. El padre y la madre de Halima habían acordado casarla cuando tuviera 14 años. La información ofrecida por Doly en sus visitas contribuyó a que cambiasen de opinión. Los matrimonios prematuros son ahora raros en el vecindario de Doly, al revés que en cualquier otro lugar de Bangladesh donde las dos terceras partes de las jóvenes están casadas antes de los 18 años. SOUNDBITE de Doly Akter, 17 años (en BANGLA): “Hay que explicar a los adolescentes que sus acciones pueden ser eficaces. Así lograremos unirnos. Si nos reunimos unas 10 ó 12 jóvenes podremos llegar a tener mucha fuerza”. De la misma manera que Doly impulsa a quienes la rodeaban a mejorar sus vidas, ella confía en que los beneficios, ahora apreciados por sus vecinos y sus familias, lleguen más allá de su barriada a un grupo más amplio de la sociedad y mejoren la vida de varios centenares más de personas.
