BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF WARBE DEVELOPMENT FOUNDATION: The Welfare Association for the Rights of Bangladeshi Emigrants (WARBE) Development Foundation has been established by Bang- ladeshi returnee migrants in order to enhance the status of the migrant workers, to ensure the recognition of their Rights and to foster the link between safe migration and the socio-economic development of Bangladesh. It is a non-profit, non-government organisation which was founded in 1997 and has been registered in 2007 under the NGO Affairs Bureau of Bangladesh, bearing no. 2281. Since its establishment, WARBE DF has been implementing a number of developmental projects related to safe migration with different reputed International NGOs and donors and have represented Bangladesh in different International Networks and Forums. WARBE is now implementing a safe migration project titled “Promoting Migrants Rights and Livelihood of Potential and Returnee Migrants and their Families in Bangladesh” in three major migration prone areas named Comilla, Tangail and Chittagong districts in Bangladesh with the support from AWO International e.V., Germany. In 2013, a pilot project was carried out successfully and the full project initiated from 1st January 2014. 2. AWO-WARBE SAFE MIGRATION PROJECT BACKGROUND: Migration has become an important emerging sector in Bangladesh and plays a significant role for the economic development by receiving remittances. In 2013 alone, it contributed almost 11% of total GDP in Bangladesh. Bangladesh is a major labour sending country in the world. Being a member of Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), most of the workers migrate to the Middle Eastern coun- tries. According to the Bureau of Manpower, Employment and Training (BMET), over 5 million Bangladeshis’ migrated in the GCC states from 1976 to 2011, mainly Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. Every year, an average of 226,439 Bangladeshis’ leaves their country for overseas employment. In 2013, migrant workers have sent US$ 14.26 billion through legal channel1. According to BMET a total 51.31% migrant people are less skilled, 15.00% were semi-skilled and only 2.52 % are professional2. Bangladeshi migrants had to spend highest recruiting cost for migration. A study showed that, a migrant worker needs to spend around US$ 2,000 to 2,500 for migrating to Middle East3 for a two to three-years contract job. Thus, safe migration has now become a big challenge for the migrant workers since a large number of people faced exploitation and distortion of information by middlemen or unscrupulous recruiting agencies. Migrants often face difficulties in the host coun- tries like, forced labour, abuse, low wages, lack of social protection and benefits and esteem and experience deplorable working conditions. It is often reported migrants sending remittance through ‘hundi’, a risky and an illegal channel. 1. Bangladesh Bank Annual Report 2013, www.bangladesh-bank.org 2.

The Daily Star, March 19, 2013, Sustaining gains from labor migration, www.thedailystar.net Baseline Publication 2014 Baseline Survey Report-2014-WARBE DF 02 To identify the behaviour of these irregular channels and to raise awareness among the existing, returnees and potential migrants, WARBE Development Foundation has conducted a baseline survey with the support of AWO International e.V. in May 2014. The major objective of this project is to ensure safe migration, protecting migrant rights as well as to develop sustainable livelihood for potential, returnee and family members of the migrants. The project is aimed at creating equal access to knowledge and capacity development trainings and activities, awareness raising meetings, remittance management meet- ings, pre-departure trainings, and advocacy and counselling services for the migrants. Besides, the project has also been focused into identification of labour discrimination, abuse, cheating, and exploitation by unscrupulous middlemen of the recruiting agencies for the purpose of ensuring safe migration. 3. TARGET POPULATION: The major target populations of this project are the potential and returnee migrants and their family members, different govern- ment officials i.e. DEMO, DO, UPO and BMET. Thus, for identifying their needs, institutional shaping of different social structure, and fixing target as per project plan and log-frame; the baseline study has conducted its survey among the following target people: Potential and outgoing migrants Returnee Migrants Left behind family members of migrants A questionnaire survey was carried out among 300 House- holds (HH) in the three project areas i.e. Comilla, Tangail and Chittagong where each district covered 100 HH. 4. PROJECT GOAL: PROJECT IMPLEMENTING AREA(S) To ensure the migrants rights and improve their family livelihood. 5. PROJECT OBJECTIVES: Increasing safe migration Improving the financial situation of the migrants and their families and re-integrate the returnee migrants in their communities. The government supports the migrants and the migrants enjoy the benefits of revised Overseas Employment & Migrant Worker’s Act 2013. 6. PROJECT IMPLEMENTING LOCATION: The project is now implementing its activities through Migra- tion Information and Support Centres (MISCs) in three major migration prone areas of Bangladesh - Tangail, Comilla and Raozan (Chittagong).

  • Risk and Coping Mechanisms of the Carp Spawn Fishing Community of the Halda River, Bangladesh
    Bangladesh J. Zool. 45(1): 85-96, 2017 ISSN: 0304-9027 (print) 2408-8455 (online) RISK AND COPING MECHANISMS OF THE CARP SPAWN FISHING COMMUNITY OF THE HALDA RIVER, BANGLADESH Aysha Akhtar, Md. Tarikul Islam, Md. Shafiqul Islam, Muhammad Moznu Mia, Md. Simul Bhuyan*, Md. Manzoorul Kibria1, Abu Sayeed Muhammad Sharif2, and Abu Hena Mustafa Kamal3 Institute of Marine Sciences and Fisheries, University of Chittagong, Chittagong, Bangladesh Abstract: To assess the livelihood risks and coping mechanisms of the spawn fishing community of the Halda river, Chittagong, Bangladesh was conducted. Four areas, namely Ankurighona, Gorduara, Madarimukh and Madunaghat were selected on the basis of the aggregation of spawn fishers. A structured questionnaire survey was made on 152 spawn fishers in two categories i.e. boat owner and hired laborers to collect primary data. Three major man-made risks, namely catch of brood fish, non-functioning sluice gates and cutting of river bends related to egg collection were mentioned by the spawn fishers while salinity intrusion, river erosion and fluctuation in weather variables were found as the main natural risks. Willingness to continue egg collection despite the risks was disagreed by most of the respondents while those who were found to continue egg collection mentioned their driving forces as high profit, tradition and hobby. The respondents expressed that they cannot take any measures to mitigate the risks of salinity intrusion, weather fluctuation, mortality of spawn, non-functioning sluice gates, cutting of river bends and political influences. However, informing police and raising awareness to stop illegal catch of brood, construction of proper sluice gates, stop further cutting of river bends and rehabilitation of erosion victims were mentioned as probable solutions.

  • The Case of Bangladesh D National Se
    Globalization, Local Crimes and National Security: The Case of Bangladesh Submitted by: Md. Ruhul Amin Sarkar Session: 149/2014-2015 Department: International Relations University of Dhaka. P a g e | 1 Abstract Globalization has become one of the most significant phenomena in the world since the end of the cold war. Globalization especially the economic globalization has brought about new opportunities and opened dynamic windows for the people of the world based on the notion of liberalism, free market, easy access of goods and services. Although globalization has brought about some positive gains for individuals and society, it has caused negative impacts on the society called ‘the dark side of globalization’. It has created complex and multifaceted security problems and threats to the countries especially the developing countries like Bangladesh. Globalization has changed the nature and dynamics of crime although crime is not a new phenomenon in Bangladesh. The nature or pattern of crime has changed remarkably with the advent of globalization, modern technology and various modern devices, which pose serious security threats to the individuals, society and the country. Globalization has created easy access to conducting illegal trade such as small arms, illegal drugs and human trafficking and some violent activities such as kidnapping, theft, murder, around the world as well as in Bangladesh. It has developed the new trends of crimes, gun violence, drugs crime, and increasing number of juvenile convicts and heinous crimes committed in Bangladesh. Over the years, the number of organized murder crimes is increasing along with rape cases and pretty nature of crimes with the advent of globalization and information technology.

This study was conducted to monitor the water quality using physicochemical and biological parameters of the river in three different sampling stations namely Gorduara, Sattarghat and Kalurghat. Eight physicochemical parameters of water - temperature, PH, transparency, EC, DO, TDS, SS, salinity and plankton communities were considered for monitoring water quality in three stations. All the physicochemical parameters were within the pollution standard except DO (4.5 mgL-1) at Kalurghat station. In case of biological monitoring, zooplankton populations consisting of four classes were identified where 13 zooplankton genera under these 4 classes showing the dominancy. The abundance of zooplankton was higher at Gorduara station (2042 No./ L) followed by Sattarghat (1906 No./ L) and Kalurghat (1610 No./ L) respectively. On the basis of Identifying 11 genera of algal genus, six genera were used to prepare ‘Palmer pollution index’ which identified Kalurghat station as highly polluted zone.

M. Abdullah-Al-Fuad Reg no. 111 Session: 2011-2012 Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Master of Philosophy June 2016 Department of Sociology University of Dhaka Dhaka University Institutional Repository DEDICATION To my parents and sister Dhaka University Institutional Repository Abstract As homicide is one of the most comparable and accurate indicators for measuring violence, the aim of this study is to improve understanding of criminal violence by providing a wealth of information about where homicide occurs and what is the current nature and trend, what are the socio-demographic characteristics of homicide offender and its victim, about who is most at risk, why they are at risk, what are the relationship between victim and offender and exactly how their lives are taken from them. Additionally, homicide patterns over time shed light on regional differences, especially when looking at long-term trends. The connection between violence, security and development, within the broader context of the rule of law, is an important factor to be considered. Since its impact goes beyond the loss of human life and can create a climate of fear and uncertainty, intentional homicide (and violent crime) is a threat to the population. Homicide data can therefore play an important role in monitoring security and justice.

The government is the legitimate custodian and savior of the civil rights of all its citizens. According to social scientists, when a state fails to ensure the protection of human rights of its citizens, it is considered as failed state. The United Nations possesses the authority to monitor the actions of member States for the protection and promotion of human rights around the globe. Bangladesh, as a member of the United Nations and signatory to a large number of international human rights treaties and conventions, has an obligation to ensure the rights of its people. Moreover, a number of universally declared human rights have been guaranteed in Part-III of the Constitution of the People’s Republic of Bangladesh.
