  • Bangladesh – Hindus – Awami League – Bengali Language
    Refugee Review Tribunal AUSTRALIA RRT RESEARCH RESPONSE Research Response Number: BGD30821 Country: Bangladesh Date: 8 November 2006 Keywords: Bangladesh – Hindus – Awami League – Bengali language This response was prepared by the Country Research Section of the Refugee Review Tribunal (RRT) after researching publicly accessible information currently available to the RRT within time constraints. This response is not, and does not purport to be, conclusive as to the merit of any particular claim to refugee status or asylum. Questions 1. Are Hindus a minority religion in Bangladesh? 2. How are religious minorities, notably Hindus, treated in Bangladesh? 3. Is the Awami League traditionally supported by the Hindus in Bangladesh? 4. Are Hindu supporters of the Awami League discriminated against and if so, by whom? 5. Are there parts of Bangladesh where Hindus enjoy more safety? 6. Is Bengali the language of Bangladeshis? RESPONSE 1. Are Hindus a minority religion in Bangladesh? Hindus constitute approximately 10 percent of the population in Bangladesh making them a religious minority. Sunni Muslims constitute around 88 percent of the population and Buddhists and Christians make up the remainder of the religious minorities. The Hindu minority in Bangladesh has progressively diminished since partition in 1947 from approximately 25 percent of the population to its current 10 percent (US Department of State 2006, International Religious Freedom Report for 2006 – Bangladesh, 15 September – Attachment 1). 2. How are religious minorities, notably Hindus, treated in Bangladesh? In general, minorities in Bangladesh have been consistently mistreated by the government and Islamist extremists. Specific discrimination against the Hindu minority intensified immediately following the 2001 national elections when the Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) gained victory with its four-party coalition government, including two Islamic parties.

  • Chapter 1 Introduction Main Report CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION
    CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION Main Report Chapter 1 Introduction Main Report CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background of the Study The Peoples Republic of Bangladesh has a population of 123 million (as of June 1996) and a per capita GDP (Fiscal Year 1994/1995) of US$ 235.00. Of the 48 nations categorized as LLDC, Bangladesh is the most heavily populated. Even after gaining independence, the nation repeatedly suffers from floods, cyclones, etc.; 1/3 of the nation is inundated every year. Shortage in almost all sectors (e.g. development funds, infrastructure, human resources, natural resources, etc.) also leaves both urban and rural regions very underdeveloped. The supply of safe drinking water is an issue of significant importance to Bangladesh. Since its independence, the majority of the population use surface water (rivers, ponds, etc.) leading to rampancy in water-borne diseases. The combined efforts of UNICEF, WHO, donor countries and the government resulted in the construction of wells. At present, 95% of the national population depend on groundwater for their drinking water supply, consequently leading to the decline in the mortality rate caused by contagious diseases. This condition, however, was reversed in 1990 by problems concerning contamination brought about by high levels of arsenic detected in groundwater resources. Groundwater contamination by high arsenic levels was officially announced in 1993. In 1994, this was confirmed in the northwestern province of Nawabganji where arsenic poisoning was detected. In the province of Bengal, in the western region of the neighboring nation, India, groundwater contamination due to high arsenic levels has been a problem since the 1980s.

  • Impact of Sea Level Rise in the Coastal Areas of Bangladesh: a Macroeconomic Analysis
    Journal of Economics and Sustainable Development www.iiste.org ISSN 2222-1700 (Paper) ISSN 2222-2855 (Online) Vol.5, No.18, 2014 Impact of Sea Level Rise in the Coastal Areas of Bangladesh: A Macroeconomic Analysis Md. Arfan Uzzaman Independent Researcher, and Graduate Student Dhaka School of Economics [email protected] 1. Introduction Due to diverse economic activities (mainly burning of fossil fuel), carbon dioxide (CO2) and other greenhouse gases (methane, nitrous oxide, ozone, chlorofluorocarbons and water vapor) are accumulated in the earth’s atmosphere, resulting in climate change. Rising temperature expand the ocean volume in two ways. Firstly, it melts mass volume of ice of the polar region and secondly, it causes thermal expansion of water of the ocean (L.Hossain& k.Hossain,2005). Ongoing climate has a greater socio economic and environmental impact on different countries. Bangladesh is considered as one of the most vulnerable countries due to climate change. Among the adverse effect of climate change, it is evident that Sea level rise is the major concern for Bangladesh which can bring a higher cost for the entire economy of this country which is difficult to capture in monetary term also. In this study the exertion is given to analyze the ongoing and long run effect of sea level rise in the coastal areas of Bangladesh. It deserves special mention that the affected districts those who are impacting by the sea level rise will spread out the cost in entire economy in the form of climate migration in cities, regional food insecurity, and poverty. 2. Objective of the study The border objective of this study is to reveal the overall socio-economic cost of Sea Level Rise (SLR) in the coastal areas of Bangladesh.

  • BANGLADESHTHE SHAHAR PROJECT IFPRI Is Collaborating with CARE-Bangladesh to Provide Research and Support for Its SHAHAR Project for Improving Urban Livelihoods
    INTERNATIONAL FOOD POLICY RESEARCH INSTITUTE sustainable options for ending hunger and poverty BANGLADESHTHE SHAHAR PROJECT IFPRI is collaborating with CARE-Bangladesh to provide research and support for its SHAHAR project for improving urban livelihoods. he staggering growth of cities in developing countries Thas contributed to widespread urban poverty. Many of the urban poor live in unsanitary environments, have uncertain incomes, and lack necessary financial and health care services.These conditions exist in Bangladesh and appear likely to worsen.The populations of the cities in Bangladesh increase by more than 1 million every year. Many cities are growing at more than 8 percent per year, and they will double in size in less than 10 years. In 1997 CARE-Bangladesh undertook an assessment of the livelihood security of slum households in three cities in Bangladesh: Bogra, Khulna, and Tongi.Based on the findings of that study and a review of secondary literature, CARE- Bangladesh created the SHAHAR (Supporting Household James Garrett © IFPRI/ Activities for Hygiene, Assets, and Revenue) project. (Shahar means “city” in Bangla.) A component of the Integrated Food Security Program (IFSP) of CARE-Bangladesh, the RESEARCH FOCUS project was launched in mid-1999 and financed by the U.S. Project Leader: James Garrett Agency for International Development. IFPRI has provided research and technical assistance to help The SHAHAR project seeks to improve livelihood security CARE with SHAHAR’s program approach. IFPRI led baseline in some of the major secondary cities of Bangladesh.The surveys in the first two cities where SHAHAR worked, project’s major activities are: Jessore and Tongi.

Towfiqul Islama* aDepartment of Disaster Management, Begum Rokeya University, Rangpur 5400, Bangladesh Received: 13 June 2019 / Revised: 16 October 2019 / Accepted: 12 January 2020 Abstract Drought risk has become a major threat for sustaining food security in Bangladesh; the particularly northwestern region of Bangladesh. The objective of the study is to assess drought disaster risk on Boro paddy cultivated areas of northwestern Bangladesh using drought disaster risk index (DDRI) model. The sensitivity of Boro paddy to droughts during crop-growing seasons and irrigation recoverability were employed to reflect vulnerability condition. Moreover, the threshold level of the standardized precipitation evapotranspiration index (SPEI) was applied to evaluate the drought hazard on Boro paddy cultivated areas in the northwestern region of Bangladesh. The probability density function (PDF) was used to show the threshold level of drought hazard. The results show that drought hazard is comparatively severe in Ishardi area compared to other northwestern regions of Bangladesh. The drought disaster risk is higher in Ishardi and Rajshahi areas than Rangpur and Dinajpur areas. Although Ishardi area is more prone to high drought risk, at the same time, the recoverability rate is also quicker than any other areas. The relationship between Boro rice yield rates and drought disaster risk is insignificant.
