CSS Ava Center

The Ava center is a unique segment of the CSS enterprise development sector which is basically an income generating project. The main purpose of Ava center is to provide finance to help sustain a number of development projects beyond donor’s support. The CSS Ava Center is fundamentally a training and resource center located at Natun Bazar, which is fifteen-minute drive from the heart of Khulna city. Named after Ms. Ava Munshi, wife of the honorable founder of CSS, it provides its clients with training, meeting, dining and accommodation facilities.

The need for establishing the Ava center originated from the limitation of the former training center named the Ava Conference Center (ACC), which was located within the head office premises and used for its own staff capacity development. The ACC was also offered to other organizations for training purpose on a rental basis and ultimately a huge demand among its clients was created. Therefore, the capacity of the ACC had been expanded and re-structured as the CSS Ava Center which was inaugurated in 2010.

Along the side of the River Rupsha, CSS Ava Center is a modern six-storied venue with simple yet stylish and versatile rooms offering fantastic facilities for meeting, daily training, conference and more. It brings the major actors of the development sector to the same table and creates an enabling environment that promotes knowledge sharing, research, creativity and innovation. The CSS Ava Center also organizes private functions such as weddings, birthday parties or any personal gatherings in accordance with its client’s preference.
