Nazirartek dried fish processing area is located in the fringe of Cox’s Bazar township and remains isolated during the high tide of the Bay of Bangle. The community is dependent on revenue derived from dried fish processing. Currently, there are no significant civic facilities established in the area, including schools, which are located close by in the main town of Cox’s Bazar. Workers, then, have very limited access to health and livelihood services. Due to the cost of living and the difficulty in getting basic access to civic facilities, the number of young children working in the Dried Fish Sector (DFS) to aid in household income earnings, has increased substantially.
