Abstract

Climate-induced displacement and migration have become urgent challenges in Bangladesh, a country that is extremely sensitive to the effects of climate change. The patterns and determinants of climate-induced displacement and migration in Bangladesh are investigated in this study, which takes a case study approach. Bangladesh, with a population of over 165 million, is one of the world's most densely populated countries, and its low-lying terrain makes it especially vulnerable to climate-related disasters, including floods, cyclones, and sea-level rise. According to recent data, between 2008 and 2019, approximately 4.4 million people were displaced annually as a result of natural catastrophes, with climate change accounting for a sizable part. The study uses both quantitative and qualitative approaches, including surveys, interviews, and secondary data analysis, to investigate how environmental variables influence migration patterns in vulnerable places such as coastal areas and riverine islands (chars). The findings show that climate-induced migration is the consequence of both acute environmental hazards and long-term socioeconomic vulnerabilities worsened by climate change. The study emphasizes the importance of government policy, local governance, and community resilience in affecting migration outcomes. This study contributes to a better understanding of the complex interplay between climate change, displacement, and migration in Bangladesh, allowing policymakers to devise more effective solutions to address the difficulties faced by climate-induced migration. The study emphasizes the importance of targeted interventions to improve adaptive ability and resilience in impacted communities, assuring long-term development in the face of continuous climatic problems.

Abstract

Primary education is the most crucial and fundamental stage of education. This paper explores the quality and effectiveness of primary education in government primary schools in Bagha Upazila of Rajshahi district. It also found out the reasons for the increase in the trend of enrollment of children in kindergarten schools. In addition, the reasons for the establishment of kindergarten schools have been explored. Further, barriers to the development of primary education are examined. Besides, steps taken by government officials and primary school teachers to improve primary education have been assessed. It also found that a child is being deprived of the services it deserves from primary school. Moreover, suggestions were sought from the respondents on how to make primary education more effective. In this study, a qualitative approach was applied. This includes open ended questionnaire as data collection tool. Primary data was collected from government officials, civil society, teachers of primary school, guardians of primary school students and guardians of kindergarten school students. The findings of this research show that primary school students are being deprived of quality education due to shortage of primary school teachers, inefficiency of teachers, lack of sincerity of teachers, lack of proper status of teachers, inadequate teaching materials, pressure of extra clerical work on teachers, underdeveloped infrastructure, poverty of families, lack of awareness of guardians. And for these reasons students are enrolling in kindergarten schools.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to reveal the copy culture of Bangladesh. Research methodology: Qualitative research was designed for this study, and an ethnographic approach was used for data collection along with in-depth interviews with copy brand users. The judgmental and snowball sampling methods were used in this study. Semi-structured questionnaires and mostly open-ended questions were designed based on the objectives of this study. Results: The findings were analyzed under three main themes: Copying Us or copying them, Consumer Subjectivity as individuals, and Fragmented Authenticity. Limitations: Due to financial and time constraints, this research focused only on the capital city of Dhaka. In the case of broader research, this study can be analyzed in other regions of the country, which will provide a wide range of information regarding copy-culture attitudes. Contribution: In Bangladesh, people follow foreign trends and famous people’s lifestyles through copy brands. This study defines how and why copying culture encourages people to purchase from the local market. The reason that allures customers to buy replicate products is the availability and affordable price of the product, which is at a time creatively designed likely to match the original version. Novelty: This study can help others to take decisions based on the findings on copy culture.

Abstract

IntroductionNatural and human-induced disasters have become more frequent and severe, resulting in significant economic losses, particularly in developing countries. Traditional disaster risk financing mechanisms often fail to adequately serve vulnerable populations due to high costs, limited accessibility, and delayed disbursements. This study explores how Islamic finance principles, when integrated with financial technology (FinTech), can provide scalable, Sharia-compliant solutions for enhancing disaster risk financing (DRF).ObjectivesThe primary objective of this research is to examine the potential of combining Islamic finance mechanisms such as Zakat, Sadaqah, and Waqf with FinTech innovations, including blockchain, smart contracts, and mobile platforms, to improve accessibility, efficiency, and transparency in DRF. This study aims to identify how these integrated solutions can enhance economic resilience, financial inclusion, and alignment with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).MethodA mixed-methods approach was employed, utilizing case studies from Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and Africa, alongside a survey (n=100) and expert interviews (n=12). The case studies focused on the application of Islamic finance and FinTech innovations in disaster-prone regions. Surveys and interviews provided empirical insights into the effectiveness of these solutions and the challenges faced in implementing them.ResultsThe study found that Islamic FinTech platforms raised an average of $24 million per disaster event, reduced disbursement times by 30-40%, and achieved adoption rates of 45-70%. Despite challenges such as regulatory barriers and digital literacy gaps, these solutions significantly enhanced financial inclusion and economic resilience, aligning with SDG 1, SDG 9, and SDG 13.ImplicationsThe research suggests that integrating Islamic finance with FinTech can provide a transformative approach to DRF, offering more inclusive, efficient, and transparent solutions. Policy recommendations include the development of unified Sharia-compliant FinTech standards and infrastructure investments to scale these solutions in disaster-prone regions.Originality/NoveltyThis study contributes to the emerging field of Islamic FinTech by bridging the gap between Islamic finance principles and modern digital technologies to enhance disaster risk financing, particularly in developing and Muslim-majority countries.
