Welcome to

Mirpur Agricultural Workshop and Training School (MAWTS)

Mirpur Agricultural Workshop and Training School (MAWTS) is a Trust of Caritas Bangladesh. Legislation of MAWTS is under the Trust Act 1882 No. 8655 dated 12-08-2008. After the Liberation War in 1971, The Christian Organization for Relief and Rehabilitation (CORR) took up massive relief and reconstruction work. The CORR (In 1976 renamed as Caritas Bangladesh) brought fleet of trucks, power tillers and irrigation equipment to implement its relief and rehabilitation works in the rural areas of Bangladesh. It was realized at a certain point that acute shortage of skilled hands for repair and maintenance of the equipment is causing enormous difficulties in keeping those functioning. In view of the situation, it was planned to set up a center where rural youths will be trained to carry out the maintenance works. A group of Swiss Engineers were engaged to oversee the works. In 1973 both CORR and Caritas Switzerland joined hands to set up a workshop in Mirpur, which is widely known as MAWTS. To carry out the activities independently and fulfill the objectives and vision, in July 2008 the institution has been transformed into a TRUST and all its operation and management handed over to the Board of Trustees.

Message from the Director

Caritas Bangladesh, a social institution of the Catholic Bishops' Conference of Bangladesh, established MAWTS (Mirpur Agricultural Workshop & Training Station) in 1973. Like any other organization that represents the country in various capacities, MAWTS has been consistently contributing to the nation's development through its training and production activities. MAWTS provides technical training to the poor, underprivileged, and indigenous/ Ethnics youth communities, regardless of race, religion, or ethnicity, with love and care. By offering various technical training programs of different durations, MAWTS is transforming these youths into a skilled workforce, ready for employment both domestically and internationally. We earnestly invite generous individuals and organizations to become partners in the prosperity of MAWTS.
The production activities of MAWTS are enriching the training programs and the trainees. The production department is a heritage of MAWTS, which can play a significant role in achieving self-reliance. Since its inception, this department has been working for the welfare of humanity. Through research, MAWTS has been making a positive contribution to the development of new, environmentally-friendly agricultural and everyday products. Various government, non-government, and development partner organizations, such as BARI, among others, are leveraging the skills and initiatives of MAWTS to create opportunities for research-based work. The MAWTS marketing department has been supporting all these production and training activities. All of this is made possible through the collective efforts of administration, training, production, and marketing departments, along with the entire staff, by prioritizing various issues in planning and ensuring everyone's participation.
Through the coordinated planning, efforts, and participation of all MAWTS employees, including its leadership, MAWTS remains steadfast in achieving its desired goals. MAWTS will continue to expand the scope of its services and make every effort to meet the timely demands of the market.
 
A website is like a mirror that reflects the image of an organization. It presents a comprehensive view of the organization to both local and international audiences. Therefore, it is essential to update, refine, and develop the website in response to the demands of the time and the needs of the era.

We encourage everyone to visit the website to learn more about MAWTS and to inspire others to get involved in the coming days. MAWTS is firmly committed to playing a vital role as a partner organization of the Government of Bangladesh in building a happy, prosperous, and developed Bangladesh.

Currently, 1745 trainees have completed the diploma course and actively engage in their respective professions, with many pursuing higher education both at home and abroad.Esteemed dignitaries and guests graced the grand celebration.Dr. Atiur Rahman, Emeritus Professor at Dhaka University and former Governor of Bangladesh Bank, declared the event open.
