Child Labour in the Era of Sustainable Development: Insights from Jhenaidah City of Bangladesh
IJSSHE-International Journal of Social Sciences, Humanities and Education Volume 3, Number 2, 2019 ISSN 2521-0041 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CHILD LABOUR IN THE ERA OF SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT: INSIGHTS FROM JHENAIDAH CITY OF BANGLADESH Md. Ashfikur Rahman Khulna University, Khulna, Bangladesh Md. Sazedur Rahman Khulna University, Khulna, Bangladesh Md. Ashraful Alam Khulna University, Khulna, Bangladesh Mahamudul Hasan Khulna University, Khulna, Bangladesh Md. Imtiaz Hasan Rahul Khulna University, Khulna, Bangladesh ABSTRACT The existence of child labour in developing countries like Bangladesh is undoubtedly a serious problem in the era of sustainable development. Undoubtedly to abolish child labor from all level is not so easy. The current study was intended to assess the livelihoods pattern and causes of being involved as a child labour in Jhenaidah city-Bangladesh and to find out the ways in which child labour can be diminished gradually. This study was exploratory in nature where convenience sampling was adapted, seventy-five children aged less than 18 years were interviewed with an interview schedule. The extent and prevalence of child labour in a country are being considered as a significant indicator of how far-off that country stays away from the overall sustainable development. The results of this study demonstrate that majority (17/22.67%) children engaged in performing work in shops or hotels. The X2 (p<0.5) results elucidate that there exists gender difference in child abuse and harassment. The rate of physical and mental abuse and torture was higher in male children, in contrast, the prevalence of sexually harassment and abuse by slung was significantly higher in female children. -

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENT Volume-3, Issue-1, Dec-Feb 2013/14 ISSN 2091-2854 Received:17 January Revised:11February Accepted:17Feburary INVENTORY OF THREATENED PLANTS OF BANGLADESH AND THEIR CONSERVATION MANAGEMENT M. Harun-ur-Rashid, M. Enamur Rashid and M. Atiqur Rahman* Department of Botany, University of Chittagong Chittagong 4331, Bangladesh *Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract The study aimed at inventorying of threatened plant species of Bangladesh to determine their status of occurrence for emphasizing the setting-up of national conservation strategies and sustainable management. Complete inventory of two families, the Apocynaceae and Vitaceae, has been made and recognized 28 threatened species facing environmental threats, and need sustainable conservation management. The study was based on long-term field investigation, survey of relevant floristic literature and examination of herbarium specimens. An enumeration of threatened taxa is prepared with updated field data on conservation status to include into Red Data Book of Bangladesh. Key words: Inventory, threatened plant species, conservation, management, Bangladesh. Introduction Global biodiversity is depleting at an alarming rate due to human interferences and environmental degradation, causing high risk of extinction. Human impact on nature has reached at such a high proportion that the world is today witnessing an unprecedented rate of species loss. Many more species are disappearing from the nature before their discovery and determination. The 1997 IUCN Red List of Threatened Plants revealed that 12.5% or c.34,000 of the world’s vascular plant species are at risk of extinction, including 7% of family International Journal of Environment ISSN 2091-2854 141 | P a g e Apocynaceae and 5% of Vitaceae (Walter & Gillett, 1998). -

A Baseline Survey on the Availability of Black Bengal Breeding Bucks in Different Districts of Bangladesh
J. Bangladesh Agril. Univ. 9(1): 91–96, 2011 ISSN 1810-3030 A baseline survey on the availability of Black Bengal breeding bucks in different districts of Bangladesh M. A. M. Y. Khandoker, A. S. Apu, S. S. Husain and D. R. Notter1 Department of Animal Breeding and Genetics, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh-2202, Bangladesh 1Department of Animal and Poultry Sciences, Virginia Polytechnic Institute & State University, USA Email: [email protected] Abstract The present study was conducted to assess the availability of Black Bengal breeding bucks in five districts from the Northern part (Lalmonirhat and Rangpur), Central part (Tangail and Mymensingh) and Southern part (Khulna) of Bangladesh and also to explore the relationship between distance of does from these breeding bucks and type of scarcity. The data were collected using a pre-tested questionnaire from 100 goat rearers of 100 villages in five districts. In this study, the selected characteristics of the respondents and other factors on the availability of Black Bengal breeding bucks were considered as independent variable whereas type of scarcity was considered as dependent variable. The buck and doe ratios were 1:164, 1:138, 1:114, 1:127 and 1:96 in Lalmonirhat, Rangpur, Tangail, Khulna and Mymensingh district, respectively. The pooled buck and doe ratio was 1:128. More than 70% farmers faced severe shortage of breeding bucks for serving their does in the above districts which ultimately represent the overall situation of the country. Almost all farmers (100%) had to depend on natural mating to serve their does except the farmers of Mymensingh where 12% farmers depended on artificial insemination in goat. -

Sakhipur, Bangladesh
Small town sanitation learning series Sakhipur, Bangladesh July 2020 View of the co-composting plant and its drying beds in the foreground WaterAid/ Al-Emran WaterAid/ Key messages 1. The small town of Sakhipur is on track to achieve town-wide safely managed sanitation, the result of technical excellence (including its co-composting plant), political drive, a clear vision, and support by WaterAid Bangladesh. 2. Local partnerships are vital to close the sanitation service chain such as the Agricultural Extension Department. 3. The sanitation vision includes both considering sanitation as a service and using the principles of circular economy. 4. Fostering municipal leadership and ownership is a slow but critical process, which can be the focus of national level advocacy for future replication. 1 / Small town sanitation learning series Sakhipur, Bangladesh July 2020 1. Introduction WaterAid Bangladesh (WAB) and the Bangladesh Association for Social Advancement (BASA) have supported Sakhipur Municipality both technically and financially to establish a co-composting plant in 2015. The plant treats both faecal sludge and organic solid waste to produce compost. The technical achievement has been well recognised and documented. This brief is mainly focusing at non-technical aspects, especially how this plant (and work around it) is paving the way for full safely-managed sanitation in the town, what has led to this success, and how it could be replicated. 2. Context Bangladesh has impressively reached almost zero open defecation and is now facing the “second generation” challenge of faecal sludge management (FSM) – with 32% “safely managed sanitation” in rural areas, and no urban estimate. -
