Individuals who have successfully completed the master’s program at this graduate school receive a Master of Public Health (MPH) degree. International healthcare professionals who play important roles in developing countries must possess a broad spectrum of knowledge, skill and ability, including: basic knowledge of maternal and child health and tropical diseases; understanding of various factors complicating current healthcare problems; and the ability to take an interdisciplinary approach, as well as establishing trustful relationships with relevant parties in resolving such problems. With the aim of developing such professionals, who can work effectively in the field of international cooperation, the Graduate School of International Health Development provides a balanced curriculum comprising classroom lectures and practical training in real-life situations, so as to facilitate students’ understanding and acquisition of adequate knowledge and skills. The important pillars of the curriculum are a short-term (three-week) field trip during the summer of the first year, and a long-term (eight-month) internship program during the second year. The field trip is designed to enable students who have acquired knowledge of basic subjects during the first semester of the first year to learn first-hand the realities of developing countries and to observe the activities of organizations that have played significant roles in development assistance. The field trip also aims at promoting interaction between participating students and such organizations through discussions and presentations of the field trip results, thereby enhancing learning outcomes and preparing the students for the second semester coursework. This report summarizes the students’ activities during the field trip that the Graduate School of International Health Development organized this year. The destination was Bangladesh, the same as last year. During the field trip, participating students visited the Bangladesh Rural Advancement Committee (BRAC)- -a leading world-wide NGO engaged in promoting social development in such areas as healthcare--and other developmental assistance organizations in Bangladesh, and inspected the regions covered by the organizations’ ongoing projects. Under the guidance of Assistant Professor Kaori Miyachi, participating students prepared observation summaries and minutes of the presentations and discussions at organizations they visited during the field trip and produced reports after the trip. These materials were compiled into this Bangladesh Field Trip report. At first, I was concerned about the language barrier, but upon reading the report I was greatly pleased to learn that participating students were able to overcome the language barrier and understand well the content of lectures and presentations given to them in Bangladesh, and that the field trip enhanced their motivation to continue studying. I hope that those who are playing important roles in international healthcare and those who are interested in such matters will read this report and make suggestions to improve our education. Finally, I would like to express my deep and sincere gratitude to all the staff at BRAC, and BRAC university, especially Prof. Anwar Islam, Dr. Farah M. Ahmed and Mr. Nakib Rajib Anmed, who provided a great opportunity for our students to receive training, and to JICA, UNICEF and the many other organizations our students visited. Prof. Yoshiki AOKI Dean, Graduate School of International Health Development Nagasaki University 2 Introduction to the Field Trip 【Object】 The purpose of this field trip is to develop understanding and insight through field observation in developing countries about health promotion and other related projects, such as infectious diseases, maternal and child health, and local health and medical care systems. In addition, students are expected to view the actual field site after learning at school in the first semester, to learn how case studies are done in the field, to know about security management, and to develop understanding of the culture and environment and other things during the field trip to utilize these experiences for a long term internship in the second year of MPH. 【Method】 In 2118 and 2119, the field trip was in Bangladesh supported by BRAC*1, the largest NGO in Bangladesh and in the world. Students visited not only BRAC, but also other international organizations, such as ICDDR,B*2, JICA, UNICEF, and others, to observe and to have discussions with related personnel and students in Bangladesh. Furthermore, students had the opportunity to chair meetings and to gain experience of the logistics involved in developing their skills for international health activities. 【Main Field】 BRAC ICDDR, B (Dhaka and Matlab) JICA Bangladesh Office and JICA Project Site UNICEF Bangladesh Office Ministry of Health and Family Welfare *1: BRAC is the largest development NGO in Bangladesh and it develops projects for health, education, rural development, etc. in all parts of Bangladesh. In some cases, the Bangladesh government applies BRAC’s model of activities in its projects. BRAC has a graduate school for public health (MPH) (professors are invited from Harvard and other universities) where international students from Bangladesh, Africa, and other Asian nations are enrolled. *2: ICDDR,B (the International Centre for Diarrhoeal Disease Research, Bangladesh) is world-renowned center as well as a research area studying 200,000 local people. For more than 41 years, it has been studying health conditions of poverty-stricken people in tropical areas, taking measures and conducting activities for improving health case surveys and other studies. 3 Schedule Date Schedule Leader Reporter Departure Fukuoka (TG649) 11:45 Arrival Bangkok 15:15 4th Aug Tue − − <Overnight Stay in Bangkok> Departure Bangkok (TG321) 11:35 Arrival Dhaka 12:11 5th Aug Wed − − <Dhaka> 11:31 Orientation at BRAC Center 12:31 Lunch at BRAC Center (Restaurant Shuruchi) 14:11 Visit to ICDDR,B 6th Aug Thu Kawakatsu Toyoshima Lecture, discussion, tour within ICDDR,B 15:31 Participation in “Knowledge Fair” 16:31 Tea party with students and staff of BRAC University <Dhaka> 7th Aug Fri AM Recap meeting; PM Free Time <Dhaka> − − 8th Aug Sat Free Day <Dhaka> − − 11:31 Visit to the Program Support Office of the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare 9th Aug Sun Lecture and Q&A session Hitachi Tanaka 15:31 Visit to JICA Bangladesh Office Lecture and Q&A session <Dhaka> 9:31 Visit to BRAC Project Site in Sreepur Micro-finance Programme, Income Generating Project by Women, 11th Aug Mon Masunaga Takagi Discussion and Q&A Session 13:11 Human Rights and Legal Education Class <Dhaka> 9:31 Mother and Child Health Training Institute Lecture and Q&A session 11th Aug Tue 14:11 Visit to UNICEF; Lecture and Q&A session Koyama Masunaga 16:31 Departure for Matlab 21:11 Briefing at Matlab Health Center <Matlab> 9:11 Field Observation of HDSS by ICDDR,B in Matlab 12th Aug Wed Visit to communities, community clinics, sub-center clinic, Matlab Kikuchi Koyama Hospital, data collection room <Dhaka> 11:31 Midterm presentation by MPH students of Nagasaki at JPGSPH in 13th Aug Thu BRAC University − − 13:11 Lunch with professors at BRAC University <Dhaka>

Background Eco-Social Development Organization (ESDO) has started its journey in 1988 with a noble vision to stand in solidarity with the poor and marginalized people. Being a peoples' centered organization, we envisioned for a society which will be free from inequality and injustice, a society where no child will cry from hunger and no life will be ruined by poverty. Over the last thirty years of relentless efforts to make this happen, we have embraced new grounds and opened up new horizons to facilitate the disadvantaged and vulnerable people to bring meaningful and lasting changes in their lives. During this long span, we have adapted with the changing situation and provided the most time-bound effective services especially to the poor and disadvantaged people. Taking into account the government development policies, we are currently implementing a considerable number of projects and programs including micro-finance program through a community focused and people centered approach to accomplish government’s development agenda and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the UN as a whole.

Rajshahi 6205, Bangladesh 2 Faculty of Fisheries, Kagoshima University, 4-50-20 Shimoarata, Kagoshima 890-0056, Japan Abstract: The present study was conducted in the Karatoya River; Bangladesh to find out the fish species availability during January 2012 to December 2012. Samples were accumulated fortnightly from the fishermen catch fished in different points of the River from Shibganj Upazila to Bogra Sadar Upazila. The present study revealed 49 species of fish under 8 orders and 18 families. Cypriniformes was the most dominant order representing 36.74% of the total fish population followed by the Siluriformes (22.45%) and Perciformes (22.45%). On the other hand, Cyprinidae was the most dominant family constituting 31.25% of the total fish population followed by Bagridae (10.20%). Among the available fish species, 18.37% were very rare while 40.82% were rare. Only 30.61% of the total fish population was found throughout the year in a small amount while merely 6.12% was available throughout the year in large quantity. More than half of the fish population available in the Karatoya River is threatened to extinct due to sundry reasons. Lack of water flow throughout the year especially during the dry season was found to be the main threat for fish species conservation in the Karatoya River.

  • Ex Ante and Ex Post Effects of Hybrid Index Insurance in Bangladesh
    Ex ante and ex post effects of hybrid index insurance in Bangladesh ∗ Ruth Vargas Hill1, Neha Kumar2, Nicholas Magnan3, Simrin Makhija2, Francesca de Nicola1, David J. Spielman2, and Patrick S. Ward4 1The World Bank, Washington, DC, USA 2International Food Policy Research Institute, Washington, DC, USA 3University of Georgia, Athens, GA, USA 4Duke Kunshan University, Kunshan, Jiangsu, China July 30, 2018 Abstract We assess both the demand for and effectiveness of index insurance product to help smallholder farmers in Bangladesh manage production risk during the monsoon season. Villages were randomized into insurance treatment or comparison groups, and discounts and rebates were randomly allocated across treatment villages to encourage take-up and to allow for the estimation of the price-elasticity of insurance demand. Among those offered insurance, we find demand to be fairly price elastic, with discounts more successful in stimulating demand than rebates. Purchasing insurance yields both ex ante risk management effects as well as ex post income effects on production practices. Risk management effects lead to an expansion of cultivated area with concomitant increases in input expenditures during the monsoon season. Income effects lead to more intensive rice production during the subsequent dry season, with more intensive use of fertilizers and labor, resulting in higher yields and higher total rice production.
