Mother-Child & Old Age Care Center

The Mother–Child and Elder Care Center provides integrated care for young mothers, children, and senior citizens in a safe and nurturing environment. The program combines healthcare, emotional support, and social engagement to address the needs of different age groups. By bringing childcare and elder care under one framework, the center encourages shared activities and intergenerational connection, reducing isolation and fostering mutual care. The focus remains on dignity, affordability, and long-term well-being.

Writer, Artists & Translator Residency

This residency program invites artists, writers, poets, researchers, and translators of Bangladeshi heritage living abroad to spend focused time in Bangladesh. Over the course of one month, residents engage with local communities, cultural spaces, and research contexts while developing new creative or scholarly work. The residency offers structure, support, and quiet time for practice, and concludes with a public outcome such as an exhibition or publication, ensuring meaningful exchange between residents and the local cultural landscape.

Winter Camp for Children & Youth

The Winter Camp Programs are seasonal initiatives that bring together children, youth, and artists in shared learning and creative spaces. The Winter Camp for children focuses on intercultural understanding, cooperation, and social awareness through guided activities and group learning. The Winter Art Camp creates an immersive environment where children and professional artists work side by side, allowing mentorship, skill-sharing, and creative collaboration to grow naturally. Both camps aim to build confidence, curiosity, and a sense of belonging.

Education & Research

The Education and Research program connects community knowledge with structured learning and applied research. It creates opportunities for exchange between indigenous communities, emerging scholars, and practitioners from national and international networks. With a strong focus on the Garo, Koch and Barman indigenous population of Madhupur, the program supports education, capacity building, and documentation of indigenous knowledge. By aligning traditional wisdom with contemporary learning systems, Anondoniketon works toward inclusive, indigenous-led models for long-term social impact.
