Pop of Colour ltd awards 10 extraordinary women

Pop of Colour (POC), a community for women, has awarded 10 successful women on March 8, the annual International Women's Day. Tinker Jannat Meem, the founder of POC, presented the awards during a ceremony styled "Raising Awareness Against Bias" held at Dhaka's Six Season hotel. The awardees included nutritionist Samia Tasnim, makeover artist Sabiha Sabrin, Dr. Nafi Islam, Dr. Mashiat Masud Momo, and entrepreneurs Mithila Islam, Rehnuma Brishti, Tonima Rahman, Tanzina Akhter, and Samira Chowdhury.

We always hear the stories of very successful people. But there are many of those who face and overcome extraordinary barriers in their regular lives as well, and that too without much support. I want people to know their stories. I want to motivate them, so we picked 10 women just like that, POC founder Meem said.
