A Floating School & Hospital Supports Remote Communities In Bangladesh

PABNA, BANGLADESH - MAY 20: Children watch a cartoon on a computer in a solar powered "floating school" operated by Shidhulai Swanirvar Sangstha May 20, 2014 in Pabna district, Bangladesh. About 3 million people live on geographically isolated islands, known as "chors", with no roads, no electricity, and no medical facilities. Every year, the nation is inundated with monsoonal rains which can flood up to two thirds of the country. Approximately 10 million people live in parts of Bangladesh lying less than a meter above current sea levels. (Photo by Allison Joyce/Getty Images)
