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. -

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. -
Chapter-Vi : Socio-Economic Profile of the Study Area
Chapter-vi : Socio-economic Profile of the Study Area 189---198 Physical feature and socio-historical background Demography Literacy Administrative Unit Transport Communications Socio-economic Profile ofthe Study Area 189 For a proper understanding of the problem, it is essential to briefly refer to an ecological profile of Kushtia district as the values and characteristics of the masses very much depend upon, and are influenced by geographical, economic, social and political background of the area. Physical feature and socio-historical background Kushtia is not an ancient township but one of the eighteen oldest districts in independent Bangladesh. There is no much evidence to know the ancient history of Kushtia. The only tool to be informed about the district what was portrayed through description by different persons based on different regimes in the region governed. Hamilton's Gazetteer has mentioned of Kushtia town and of the fact that the local people called the town Kushtay (Kushte). In Tolemy's map, several little islands have been portrayed under the Ganges basin. These islands are considered as ancient Kushtia. 1 The district was under Natore Zemindar in 1725. Then it was under Rajshahi civil administration of Kanadarnagar Pargana. 2 Later East India Company transferred Kushtia under Jessore district in 1776. It was brought under Pabna district in 1828. Then Mahkuma Administration was established under Kushtia in 1861 and then brought under Nadia district.3 During the British rule, railway connection with Kolkata, capital of British India, established in 1860, made the town an alluring location for mills and factories, including the Jagneshwar Engineering Works (1896), Renwick and Company ( 1904 ), and the Mohini Mills (1919). -

Journal of Neuroscience and Behavioural Health, Vol. 2(1) pp. 001-006, March 2010 Available online http://www.academicjournals.org/jnbh © 2010 Academic Journals Full Length Research Paper Health status and modeling of rural aged population of Kushtia District in Bangladesh Rafiqul Islam*, Mosharaf Hossain and Moshiur Rahman Department of Population Science and HRD, University of Rajshahi, Rajshahi-6205, Bangladesh. Accepted October 29, 2009 Aged population is an emerging issue in Bangladesh. It is a frightening problem of rural area in Bangladesh as well as a national problem. It has many socio-economic effects on national development. So, the aim of this study is to identify the determinants of health status of aged population in Kumarkhali Thana of Kushtia District in Bangladesh. Furthermore, an effort has been made here to fit mathematical model for aged population due to ages. For this, a total number of 250 rural aged populations have been interviewed through a structured questionnaire by purposive sampling technique. In this study, logistic regression model and polynomial model are applied. In logistic analysis, it is indicated that the respondent’s sex, type of family, occupation of the family head and suffering any diseases have significant effects for taking treatment on aged population. It is seen that age associated with aged population follow third degree polynomial model explaining more than 99% coefficient of determination. Key words: Aged population, socio-economic variables, logistic regression analysis, polynomial model, Bangladesh. INTRODUCTION Aged population is defined as the group of population aging is expected to accelerate in the coming decades, who belong to the age group of 60 years and more (BAG, mainly because the large cohorts born in 1950s and 2003).
