  • Revisit to Dhaka University As the Symbol of Bengal Partition Sowmit Chandra Chanda Dr
    Academic Ramification in Colonial India: Revisit to Dhaka University as the Symbol of Bengal Partition Sowmit Chandra Chanda Dr. Neerja A. Gupta PhD Research Scholar under Dr. Neerja A. Director & Coordinator, Department of Gupta, Department of Diaspora and Diaspora and Migration Studies, SAP, Migration Studies, SAP, Gujarat Gujarat University, Ahmedabad, India. University, Ahmedabad, India. Abstract: It has been almost hundred years since University of Dhaka was established back in 1921. It was the 13th University built in India under the Colonial rule. It was that like of dream comes true object for those people who lived in the eastern part of Indian Sub-continent under Bengal presidency in the British period. But when the Bengal partition came into act in 1905, people from the new province of East Bengal and Assam were expecting a faster move from the government to establish a university in their capital city. But, with in 6 years, the partition was annulled. The people from the eastern part was very much disappointed for that, but they never left that demand to have a university in Dhaka. After some several reports and commissions the university was formed at last. But, in 1923, in the first convocation of the university, the chancellor Lord Lytton said this university was given to East Bengal as a ‘splendid Imperial compensation’. Which turns our attention to write this paper. If the statement of Lytton was true and honest, then certainly Dhaka University stands as the foremost symbol of both the Bengal Partition in the academic ramification. Key Words: Partition, Bengal Partition, Colony, Colonial Power, Curzon, University, Dhaka University etc.

  • Developing a Low-Carbon Architecture Pedagogy in Bangladesh
    Afroz, R. (2020). Developing a low-carbon architecture pedagogy in Bangladesh. Buildings and Cities, 1(1), pp. 637–649. DOI: https://doi.org/10.5334/bc.54 SYNTHESIS Developing a low-carbon architecture pedagogy in Bangladesh Rumana Afroz1 Abstract Architectural education and training can help ensure low-carbon emission for projects. Despite some broad initiatives to address this, there are still gaps in the curricula, theory and practices. The current pedagogical trends and approaches in Bangladesh are identified and examined for how climate mitigation is addressed in the architecture curriculum. This has revealed a lack of awareness, limited education and training, and inadequate pedagogical (i.e. teaching) approaches for low-carbon education in architecture curricula. A lack of alignment exists between curricula orientation and the national agenda for climate change and low-carbon development. In order to integrate a sustainable low-carbon education in the architecture pedagogy, a set of recommendations for pedagogical approaches, education and training framework is proposed to offer crucial guidance to academia and other relevant stakeholders. Practice relevance Bangladesh is acutely affected by climate vulnerability due to its geographical location in the Ganges Delta. Although mitigation and low-carbon development policies are part of the national agenda, this has not been incorporated into the additional capabilities required by architects to deliver this. Low-carbon design and sustainability issues in architectural curricula are still in the initial phases of development. A lack of awareness, inadequate education and training, and lack of alignment between curricula orientation and the national agenda are identified as important factors. A set of scalable solutions and recommendations for education and training for architectural students is suggested.

    IIUC STUDIES ISSN 1813-7733 Vol. – 4, December 2007 Published in April 2008 (p 87-108) Challenges of Islamic Da‘wah in Bangladesh: The Christian Missions and Their Evangelization Dr. Md. Yousuf Ali∗ Abu Sadat Nurullah∗∗ Abstract: Although Bangladesh is the second largest Muslim populated country in the world, there are several challenges of Islamic da‘wah here. The Christian mission, taking the opportunity of people’s poverty and distress, is evangelizing them through financial assistance and other means. The rapidly increasing number of conversion to Christianity among the tribal population is alarming. The missionary activities are spreading around the country, chiefly in the intellectual arena, in educational institutions, and in other aspects of life. The influence of it on the culture, education, religion and lifestyle of people results into converting people to the Christian ideology. Particularly the young generations are inclining towards this lucrative dogma of the new age. Media, both print and electronic, are propagating and claiming the banning of the da‘wah movement. In these situation, the Islamic da‘wah movements require to explore and implement new methodology to face the enormous challenges to prevent Bangladesh from becoming a Christian country in future. Keywords: Islamic da‘wah, Christian mission, and evangelization. Introduction: Bangladesh has the fourth largest concentration of Muslim populations in the world with a population of about 140 billion, of which 88 percent are Muslims. However, majority of the population (74 percent according to 2001 census) reside in rural area with lower economic condition and lowest standards of living.

  • Determinants of Religious Tourism: an Empirical Investigation
    Journal of Business Studies, Vol. XL, No. 3, December 2019 Determinants of Religious Tourism: An Empirical Investigation Prosanjit Saha* Biplab Roy** Abstract: Religious tourism presumably the oldest form of tourism in which the tourists search for tranquility and sacred experience. Despite having promising faith centers in different parts of Bangladesh, religious tourism receives little research attention. Owing to inadequate understanding and precise portrayal of religious tourism’s products, domestic travelers often exclude religious attractions out of their usual year round itinerary. This study aims to identify major determinants for developing religious tourism in a credible way to the travelers. Through snowball sampling, 100 respondents who visited at least once to any religious sites was surveyed face to face. Descriptive statistics portrayed the demographic profile of the respondents and Regression analysis explored the influence of each determinant. The results make contribution by suggesting that unique branding and communicating religious values through social media promotion determine the success of religious tourism. Moreover, the study offered some managerial implications to develop Bangladesh as an attractive religious tourism hub. Keywords: Religious Tourism, Unique and consistent branding, interpreting religious values, sustainable policies, innovative promotion. Introduction Tourism is now considered as one of the most dominant sectors in the world consisting multifarious forms and diverse nature. One of the most sensible and prevalent forms of tourism is religious tourism. It can be defined as travel with the core motive of experiencing religious forms, or the products they induce, like art, culture, traditions and architecture. According to the Ministry of Tourism of Brazil (MTUR) (2010), “Religious Tourism is the set of tourism activities arising from the spiritual quest and religious practice in places and in events related to institutional religions, regardless of creed or ethnic origin”.

Experience from Bangladesh M. Jahangir Alam Chowdhury mjac (at) univdhaka.edu Abstract: The study intends to assess the impact of the participation in the microcredit programs in Bangladesh on women entrepreneurship development at the household level. The main objective is to see whether the participation in the microcredit programs help participating women to start their own businesses and to create employment for other people.

The sample households have been selected randomly from the participants of top three microfinance instructions, Grameen Bank, BRAC and ASA, in Bangladesh. The results indicate that the participation in the microcredit programs does not promote women entrepreneurship at the household level. But, the results indicate that the same participation significantly increases capital of existing businesses of participating households.

  • 1. Introduction
    Notes 1. Introduction 1. ‘Diaras and Chars often first appear as thin slivers of sand. On this is deposited layers of silt till a low bank is consolidated. Tamarisk bushes, a spiny grass, establish a foot-hold and accretions as soon as the river recedes in winter; the river flows being considerably seasonal. For several years the Diara and Char may be cultivable only in winter, till with a fresh flood either the level is raised above the normal flood level or the accretion is diluvated completely’ (Haroun er Rashid, Geography of Bangladesh (Dhaka, 1991), p. 18). 2.
