  • Odhikar's Fact Finding Report/5 and 6 May 2013/Hefazate Islam, Motijheel
    Odhikar’s Fact Finding Report/5 and 6 May 2013/Hefazate Islam, Motijheel/Page-1 Summary of the incident Hefazate Islam Bangladesh, like any other non-political social and cultural organisation, claims to be a people’s platform to articulate the concerns of religious issues. According to the organisation, its aims are to take into consideration socio-economic, cultural, religious and political matters that affect values and practices of Islam. Moreover, protecting the rights of the Muslim people and promoting social dialogue to dispel prejudices that affect community harmony and relations are also their objectives. Instigated by some bloggers and activists that mobilised at the Shahbag movement, the organisation, since 19th February 2013, has been protesting against the vulgar, humiliating, insulting and provocative remarks in the social media sites and blogs against Islam, Allah and his Prophet Hazrat Mohammad (pbuh). In some cases the Prophet was portrayed as a pornographic character, which infuriated the people of all walks of life. There was a directive from the High Court to the government to take measures to prevent such blogs and defamatory comments, that not only provoke religious intolerance but jeopardise public order. This is an obligation of the government under Article 39 of the Constitution. Unfortunately the Government took no action on this. As a response to the Government’s inactions and its tacit support to the bloggers, Hefazate Islam came up with an elaborate 13 point demand and assembled peacefully to articulate their cause on 6th April 2013. Since then they have organised a series of meetings in different districts, peacefully and without any violence, despite provocations from the law enforcement agencies and armed Awami League activists.

  • Bangladesh: Gender Equality Diagnostic of Selected Sectors
    Bangladesh Gender Equality Diagnostic of Selected Sectors Over the last 2 decades, Bangladesh has made progress in women’s participation in the labor force, gender parity in primary education, and women’s political representation. Areas of concern include the high prevalence of violence against women, obstacles to women’s access to resources and assets, unequal terms of their labor engagement, and impact of their overwhelming responsibility for care work. The Government of Bangladesh has made policy commitments toward gender equality and established an institutional framework to fulfill these. This publication intends to support the government in its attempt to address persisting gender inequalities and gaps through a multisector approach across policies, programs, and projects. It provides insights into gender issues in urban; transport; energy; and skills, vocational, and tertiary education, and gives suggestions for strengthening gender mainstreaming in projects. About the Asian Development Bank ADB’s vision is an Asia and Pacific region free of poverty.

  • Human-Rights-Monitoring-Report-April
    1 May 2018 Human Rights Monitoring Report 1-30 April 2018 Odhikar has, since 1994, been monitoring the human rights situation in Bangladesh in order to promote and protect civil, political, economic, social and cultural rights of Bangladeshi citizens and to report on violations and defend the victims. 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. Odhikar has always been consistent in creating mass awareness of human rights issues using several means, including reporting violations perpetrated by the State and advocacy and campaign to ensure internationally recognised civil and political rights of citizens. 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. In line with this campaign, Odhikar prepares and releases human rights status reports every month. The Organisation has prepared and disseminated this human rights monitoring report of April 2018, despite facing persecution and continuous harassment and threats to its existence since 2013. Although many incidents of human rights violations occur every month, only a few significant incidents have been highlighted in this report. Information used in the report was gathered by human rights defenders

  • Students, Space, and the State in East Pakistan/Bangladesh 1952-1990
    1 BEYOND LIBERATION: STUDENTS, SPACE, AND THE STATE IN EAST PAKISTAN/BANGLADESH 1952-1990 A dissertation presented by Samantha M. R. Christiansen to The Department of History In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the field of History Northeastern University Boston, Massachusetts September, 2012 2 BEYOND LIBERATION: STUDENTS, SPACE, AND THE STATE IN EAST PAKISTAN/BANGLADESH 1952-1990 by Samantha M. R. Christiansen ABSTRACT OF DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate School of Northeastern University September, 2012 3 ABSTRACT This dissertation examines the history of East Pakistan/Bangladesh’s student movements in the postcolonial period. The principal argument is that the major student mobilizations of Dhaka University are evidence of an active student engagement with shared symbols and rituals across time and that the campus space itself has served as the linchpin of this movement culture. The category of “student” developed into a distinct political class that was deeply tied to a concept of local place in the campus; however, the idea of “student” as a collective identity also provided a means of ideological engagement with a globally imagined community of “students.” Thus, this manuscript examines the case study of student mobilizations at Dhaka University in various geographic scales, demonstrating the levels of local, national and global as complementary and interdependent components of social movement culture. The project contributes to understandings of Pakistan and Bangladesh’s political and social history in the united and divided period, as well as provides a platform for analyzing the historical relationship between social movements and geography that is informative to a wide range of disciplines.

  • Impcat of Climate Change of Brahmaputra River Basin On
    International Journal of Scientific & Engineering Research, Volume 7, Issue 6, June-2016 ISSN 2229-5518 765 Climate Change (2015) IMPACT OF CLIMATE CHANGE OF BRAHMAPUTRA RIVER BASIN ON URBAN DRAINAGE OF GORANCHATBARI, DHAKA Shahadat Hossain1 A.K.M. Saiful Islam2 Mostafa Ali3 Mustasim Billah4 G.R. Fahad4 Abstract An urban inundation model, combining a storm sewer model SWMM and operations of Goranchatbari pumping station, has been developed to simulate inundation in urban areas due to storm water and outlet pumping station. The movement of water in the studied Goranchatbari watershed is characterized by two components, namely, the storm water flow component and the inundation component. SWMM is employed to solve the storm water flow component and to provide the flow hydrographs for surface runoff exceeding the capacity of the storm water. Drainage by pumping stations at outlets of the storm water system has also been taken into consideration. The parameters of the Goranchatbari model are calibrated and verified for discrete storms. SWAT simulation with extreme scenarios RCP 8.5 over the Brahmaputra basin provided the discharge data of Bahadurabad station. Flood frequency analysis using 20yr, 50yr, and 100yr flood will be conducted for Bahduarabad station and will correlate with Turag River station. The effect of outfall water level due to climate change will be incorporated in this SWMM drainage model to generate future scenarios of study area. The combined study is suitable for analysis of inundation on urban areas due to overflow of storm water and flooding caused by Climate Change. Simulated results can be applied to establish flood-mitigation measures.

The aim behind this initiative is to upgrade the capacity for research and policy analysis at BB. As part of its mandate PAU will prepare and publish, among other, several Policy Notes on macroeconomic issues every quarter. The precise topics of these Notes are chosen by the Resident Economic Adviser in consultation with the senior management of the Bangladesh Bank. These papers are primarily intended as background documents for the policy guidance of the senior management of BB. Neither the Board of Directors nor the management of the Bangladesh Bank, nor WBI, nor any agency of the Government of Bangladesh or the World Bank Group necessarily endorses any or all of the views expressed in these papers. The latter reflect the judgment based on professional analysis carried out by the staff of the Policy Analysis Unit, and hence the usual caveat as to the veracity of research reports applies.
