  • Bangladesh: Gender Equality Diagnostic of Selected Sectors
    Bangladesh Gender Equality Diagnostic of Selected Sectors Over the last 2 decades, Bangladesh has made progress in women’s participation in the labor force, gender parity in primary education, and women’s political representation. Areas of concern include the high prevalence of violence against women, obstacles to women’s access to resources and assets, unequal terms of their labor engagement, and impact of their overwhelming responsibility for care work. The Government of Bangladesh has made policy commitments toward gender equality and established an institutional framework to fulfill these. This publication intends to support the government in its attempt to address persisting gender inequalities and gaps through a multisector approach across policies, programs, and projects. It provides insights into gender issues in urban; transport; energy; and skills, vocational, and tertiary education, and gives suggestions for strengthening gender mainstreaming in projects. About the Asian Development Bank ADB’s vision is an Asia and Pacific region free of poverty.

  • Impcat of Climate Change of Brahmaputra River Basin On
    International Journal of Scientific & Engineering Research, Volume 7, Issue 6, June-2016 ISSN 2229-5518 765 Climate Change (2015) IMPACT OF CLIMATE CHANGE OF BRAHMAPUTRA RIVER BASIN ON URBAN DRAINAGE OF GORANCHATBARI, DHAKA Shahadat Hossain1 A.K.M. Saiful Islam2 Mostafa Ali3 Mustasim Billah4 G.R. Fahad4 Abstract An urban inundation model, combining a storm sewer model SWMM and operations of Goranchatbari pumping station, has been developed to simulate inundation in urban areas due to storm water and outlet pumping station. The movement of water in the studied Goranchatbari watershed is characterized by two components, namely, the storm water flow component and the inundation component. SWMM is employed to solve the storm water flow component and to provide the flow hydrographs for surface runoff exceeding the capacity of the storm water. Drainage by pumping stations at outlets of the storm water system has also been taken into consideration. The parameters of the Goranchatbari model are calibrated and verified for discrete storms. SWAT simulation with extreme scenarios RCP 8.5 over the Brahmaputra basin provided the discharge data of Bahadurabad station. Flood frequency analysis using 20yr, 50yr, and 100yr flood will be conducted for Bahduarabad station and will correlate with Turag River station. The effect of outfall water level due to climate change will be incorporated in this SWMM drainage model to generate future scenarios of study area. The combined study is suitable for analysis of inundation on urban areas due to overflow of storm water and flooding caused by Climate Change. Simulated results can be applied to establish flood-mitigation measures.

Government of the People’s Republic of Bangladesh Message It is my great pleasure to know that the updated National Biodiversity Strategy and Action Plan or NBSAP 2016-2021 is going to be published. This document is a guiding framework for biodiversity conservation, ensuring sustainable use of its components along with fair and equitable sharing of benefits arising out of utilization of genetic resources. Bangladesh enjoys a very rich diversity of flora and fauna in a wider range of ecosystems. The economy of the country and the people are heavily dependent on the biological resources for their lives and livelihoods. Our cultural heritage, rural lifestyles and traditional healthcare have long been attached to the services provided by the biodiversity. To ensure our rich biodiversity be conserved and used sustainably, we need to follow the updated NBSAP that reflects well thought of actions and strategies of implementation. The NBSAP as a whole could serve as a guiding document to everyone who is involved in management of country’s biodiversity. Being a developing nation, like any other such countries of the world, expansion of intensive agriculture, industrialization, rapid urbanization and rural infrastructure development caused severe stress on the habitats of biodiversity.

  • The Islamization Project of President General Ershad in Bangladesh
    ISSN: 2186-8492, ISSN: 2186-8484 Print エシアン ゾロナル オフ ソシルサエニセズ アンドヒオメニテズ Vol. 2 No. 3 August 2013 ISLAM AS A SYMBOL OF LIGITIMIZATION: THE ISLAMIZATION PROJECT OF PRESIDENT GENERAL ERSHAD IN BANGLADESH Kazi Shahdat Kabir Associate Professor, Department of Development & Governance Studies, Northern University Bangladesh, Banani, Dhaka, BANGLADESH. [email protected] ABSTRACT The aim of this paper is to look at General Ershad’s Islamization policy during his nine years rule. This article tried to examine Ershad's rhetoric to Islam, Islamic values and incorporation of Islam as a state religion in Bangladesh. The data collected from newspapers, books, magazines and journals. The study found that Ershad who raised the 'Islamic slogan' throughout his nine-years rule, although incorporated some Islamic values in state’s social and political arena, yet the main objective of that was to legitimize his rule by getting support from the masses as well as Islam-based political parties, but failed. Keywords: Ershad, Islamization, legitimacy, Islamic slogan, Bangladesh INTRODUCTION General Hussain Muhammad Ershad, who came to power through bloodless military coup, ruled the country from 1982 to 1990. The contention is that even though General Ershad frequently talked about the "inevitability" of Islam in the state, he was not actually interested to implement Islamic ideology. His main objective was rather to gain support from the 'Islam loving' people as well as the Islam based political parties. This article argues that Ershad's rhetoric to Islam, Islamic values and incorporation of Islam as a state religion in Bangladesh was a political game, since there were no significant steps taken on the above declaration.
