Our North Star

A generation of young people
carrying the weight of a broken world.

HEART exists to change that.

Rooted in Research. Built for Change.

Youth-Led.
Evidence-Based.
Community-Driven.

Bangladesh has one of the world's youngest populations — and one of its most underserved in terms of evidence-based health education, mental resilience, and climate literacy. Young people are entering careers, communities, and crises without the tools they need to thrive or lead.

The HEART Definition

Our Core Identity

HEART Global is a youth-led public health organization rooted in Dhaka, built on a simple belief: healing people and healing the planet are not separate goals.

We bridge the gap between academic rigor and lived experience — training young researchers, delivering evidence-based services, and building communities of practice that outlast any single program.

Our name is our methodology. Every initiative we launch is filtered through these five foundational dimensions.

H

Health

Prioritizing holistic wellbeing through the integration of scientific precision and traditional wisdom.

E

Exploration

Discovering new frontiers in community health, personal growth, and environmental sustainability.

A

Academic

Maintaining the highest standards of intellectual rigor and evidence-based practice in all we do.

R

Research

Leveraging data and systematic inquiry to understand complex social and health challenges.

T

Training

Empowering the next generation of scholars and leaders with the skills to drive real-world impact.
