Saliha is a patient at MSF’s women’s health clinic in Kamrangirchar, a densely populated slum in the south of Dhaka, the capital of Bangladesh. She has survived abuse first from her father and then from her husband. She is, in some ways, typical of the women who come to the clinic. “Before, I had no courage to help other women because I was afraid of my husband,” says Saliha. “But now, I have overcome all of my fears and anxieties.”
