  • One Year After the Rana Plaza Catastrophe : Slow Progress and Insufficient Compensation
    FIDH - International Federation for Human Rights Odhikar One Year After the Rana Plaza Catastrophe : Slow Progress and Insufficient Compensation One year has passed since the collapse of the Rana Plaza in Dhaka, Bangladesh, and survivors and victims' families are still waiting for adequate compensation. Safety conditions and respect for workers' rights in garment factories in Bangladesh remain concerning. Background: On April 24, 2013 in Savar, in the suburb of Dhaka, Bangladesh, the “Rana Plaza” factory collapsed, killing at least 1,130 people and injuring more than 2,000.1 This eight-storey structure, built and operating in violation of minimal safety standards, held five ready-made garment factories which supplied some thirty European and American clothing brands. In the aftermath of this disaster, a variety of international multi-stakeholder initiatives were created, bringing together global brands, trade unions, NGOs and the International Labour Organization (ILO), in order to improve the building and fire safety codes of textile factories in Bangladesh, as well as to compensate Rana Plaza survivors and victims' families. Some multinational companies were quick to provide one-off payments to victims, others have not yet contributed to the compensation fund, and some continue to insist that they hadn't placed any orders with the five Rana Plaza clothing factories. Q&A by FIDH and its member organisation in Bangladesh Odhikar 1- Have those responsible for this catastrophe been identified? Have they been held accountable? Several actors share responsibility for this tragedy. The primary responsibility falls on the Bangladeshi authorities, who failed in their obligation to protect workers. The private actors implicated in the disaster also share responsibility, namely the owners of the Rana Plaza building and of the garment factories it held, as well as the multinational corporations which sourced from those garment factories.

  • Freemuse-Drik-PEN-International
    Joint submission to the mid-term Universal Periodic Review of Bangladesh by Freemuse, Drik, and PEN International 4 December 2020 Executive summary Freemuse, Drik, and PEN International welcome the opportunity to contribute to the mid-term review of the Universal Periodic Review (UPR) on Bangladesh. This submission evaluates the implementation of recommendations made in the previous UPR and assesses the Bangladeshi authorities’ compliance with international human rights obligations with respect to freedoms of expression, information and peaceful assembly, in particular concerns related to: - Digital Security Act and Information and Communication Technology Act - Limitations on freedom of religion and belief - Restrictions to the right to peaceful assembly and political engagement - Attacks on artistic freedom and academic freedom As part of the third cycle UPR process in 2018, the Government of Bangladesh accepted 178 recommendations and noted 73 out of a total 251 recommendations received. This included some aimed at guaranteeing the rights to freedom of expression, information and peaceful assembly. However, a crackdown on freedom of expression has been intensified since the review and civil society, including artists and journalists, has faced adversity from authorities. These are in violation of Bangladesh’s national and international commitments to artistic freedom, specifically the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights and International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights which were ratified by the authorities in 2000 and 1998, respectively. This UPR mid-term review was compiled based on information from Freemuse, Drik and PEN International. 1 SECTION A Digital Security Act: a threat to freedom of expression Third Cycle UPR Recommendations The Government of Bangladesh accepted recommendations 147.67, 147.69, 147.70, 148.3, 148.13, 148.14, and 148.15 concerning the Information and Communication Technology Act and Digital Security Act.

  • Quarterly Human Rights Monitoring Report on Bangladesh
    Quarterly Human Rights Monitoring Report on Bangladesh Reporting Period: July – September 2019 Prepared by Odhikar Date of Release: 12 October 2019 1 Foreword In order to promote and protect the civil, political, economic, social and cultural rights of Bangladeshi citizens, Odhikar has been relentlessly working on human rights in Bangladesh since 1994. Odhikar does not believe that the human rights movement merely endeavours to protect the ‘individual’ from violations perpetrated by the state; rather, it believes that the movement to establish the rights and dignity of every individual is part of the struggle to constitute Bangladesh as a democratic state. As a human rights organization Odhikar has always been active in raising mass awareness of the various human rights violations committed by the state and to campaign for internationally recognized civil and political rights, protest rights violations and prevent the state from violating human rights. The Organisation unconditionally stands by the victims of oppression and maintains no prejudice with regard to political leanings or ideological orientation, race, religion or sex. Since 2013, Odhikar has been facing persecution and continuous harassment and threats to its existence by the incumbent government due to its human rights activism. Despite this adverse situation, Odhikar continues to work; and has prepared the third quarter (July-September) report of 2019 on the human rights situation of Bangladesh, based on reports gathered by grassroots human rights defenders associated with

These are explained in more detail below. Assessment This section analyses the evidence relevant to this note – i.e. the COI section; refugee/human rights laws and policies; and applicable caselaw – by describing this and its inter-relationships, and provides an assessment of, in general, whether one or more of the following applies: x A person is reasonably likely to face a real risk of persecution or serious harm x The general humanitarian situation is so severe as to breach Article 15(b) of European Council Directive 2004/83/EC (the Qualification Directive) / Article 3 of the European Convention on Human Rights as transposed in paragraph 339C and 339CA(iii) of the Immigration Rules x The security situation presents a real risk to a civilian’s life or person such that it would breach Article 15(c) of the Qualification Directive as transposed in paragraph 339C and 339CA(iv) of the Immigration Rules x A person is able to obtain protection from the state (or quasi state bodies) x A person is reasonably able to relocate within a country or territory x A claim is likely to justify granting asylum, humanitarian protection or other form of leave, and x If a claim is refused, it is likely or unlikely to be certifiable as ‘clearly unfounded’ under section 94 of the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act 2002.
