Book The Rohingya Crisis and the Two Faced God of Janus

Download or read book The Rohingya Crisis and the Two Faced God of Janus written by Kawser Ahmed and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2022-06-21 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Rohingya Crisis is now in its fifth year with no end in sight. While the international community has supported the displaced Rohingyas in Bangladesh by providing humanitarian assistance, what is needed now is to investigate the short-and long-term implications of the crisis from the host country's perspective. Also, it is imperative to examine the current political situation, which was caused by the Myanmar military coup in February 2021. It has cast a dark shadow on the possibility of a negotiated repatriation. In this volume, scholars from Bangladesh and Canada have reflected upon the security situation, the pandemic’s impact on the Rohingyas, inter-group conflict, environmental impact and burden sharing aspects, the informal labor situation, NGO intervention for resilience mapping, and diaspora activities. For both academics and policymakers who work in the fields of conflict resolution and peacebuilding, this book will show how not intervening early in a crisis can have long-term consequences.

Book Regional Inequality in the Distribution Pattern and Accessibility of Educational Institutions in Sylhet Division Bangladesh

Download or read book Regional Inequality in the Distribution Pattern and Accessibility of Educational Institutions in Sylhet Division Bangladesh written by Choudhury Touhida Anwer and published by diplom.de. This book was released on 2016-04-20 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Education is one of the most important constituents of human resource development. In this study an attempt has been made to find out the regional inequality in distribution pattern and accessibility of educational institutions in Sylhet Division, Bangladesh. Spatial dispersion with regard to the city center/district headquarter has been calculated to find out the distributional pattern. Accessibility of the educational institutions has been computed with the help of the number of educational institutions, population density and total area of the Sylhet division where the relationship between density of population and educational institutions have been taken in consideration. Correlation between the density of populations and the density of educational institutions is established by analyzing standard statistical techniques as well as spatial analysis.

Book Coastal Wetlands Alteration and Remediation

Download or read book Coastal Wetlands Alteration and Remediation written by Charles W. Finkl and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-07-18 with total page 874 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book delves into human-induced and natural impacts on coastal wetlands, intended or otherwise, through a series of vignettes that elucidate the environmental insults and efforts at amelioration and remediation. The alteration, and subsequent restoration, of wetland habitats remain key issues among coastal scientists. These topics are introduced through case studies and pilot programs that are designed to better understand the best practices of trying to save what is left of these fragile ecosystems. Local approaches, as well as national and international efforts to restore the functionality of marsh systems are summarily approached and evaluated by their efficacy in producing resilient reclamations in terms of climate-smart habitat conservation. The outlook of this work is global in extent and local by intent. Included here in summarized form are professional opinions of experts in the field that investigate the crux of the matter, which proves to be human pressure on coastal wetland environments. Even though conservation and preservation of these delicate environmental systems may be coming at a later date, many multi-pronged approaches show promise through advances in education, litigation, and engineering to achieve sustainable coastal systems. The examples in this book are not only of interest to those working exclusively with coastal wetlands, but also to those working to protect the surrounding coastal areas of all types.
