BACKGROUND Eco-Social Development Organization (ESDO) has started its journey in 1988 with a noble vision to stand in solidarity with the poor and marginalized people. Being a peoples' centered organization, we envisioned for a society which will be free from inequality and injustice, a society where no child will cry from hunger and no life will be ruined by poverty. Over the last thirty years of relentless efforts to make this happen, we have embraced new grounds and opened up new horizons to facilitate the disadvantaged and vulnerable people to bring meaningful and lasting changes in their lives. During this long span, we have adapted with the changing situation and provided the most time-bound effective services especially to the poor and disadvantaged people. Taking into account the government development policies, we are currently implementing a considerable number of projects and programs including micro-finance program through a community focused and people centered approach to accomplish government’s development agenda and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the UN as a whole.

  • State Denial, Local Controversies and Everyday Resistance Among the Santal in Bangladesh
    The Issue of Identity: State Denial, Local Controversies and Everyday Resistance among the Santal in Bangladesh PhD Dissertation to attain the title of Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) Submitted to the Faculty of Philosophische Fakultät I: Sozialwissenschaften und historische Kulturwissenschaften Institut für Ethnologie und Philosophie Seminar für Ethnologie Martin-Luther-University Halle-Wittenberg This thesis presented and defended in public on 21 January 2020 at 13.00 hours By Farhat Jahan February 2020 Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Burkhard Schnepel Reviewers: Prof. Dr. Burkhard Schnepel Prof. Dr. Carmen Brandt Assessment Committee: Prof. Dr. Carmen Brandt Prof. Dr. Kirsten Endres Prof. Dr. Rahul Peter Das To my parents Noor Afshan Khatoon and Ghulam Hossain Siddiqui Who transitioned from this earth but taught me to find treasure in the trivial matters of life. Abstract The aim of this thesis is to trace transformations among the Santal of Bangladesh. To scrutinize these transformations, the hegemonic power exercised over the Santal and their struggle to construct a Santal identity are comprehensively examined in this thesis. The research locations were multi-sited and employed qualitative methodology based on fifteen months of ethnographic research in 2014 and 2015 among the Santal, one of the indigenous groups living in the plains of north-west Bangladesh. To speculate over the transitions among the Santal, this thesis investigates the impact of external forces upon them, which includes the epochal events of colonization and decolonization, and profound correlated effects from evangelization or proselytization. The later emergence of the nationalist state of Bangladesh contained a legacy of hegemony allowing the Santal to continue to be dominated.

  • 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.
