SUMMARY:From MDGS to SDG: Bangladesh as a Case Point
DESCRIPTION:Pre-conference on Bangladesh – From MDGS to SDG: Bangladesh as a Case Point. A day-long preconference organized by the American Institute of Bangladesh Studies (AIBS) and The Subir and Malini Chowdhury Center for Bangladesh Studies at UC Berkeley at the 45th Annual Conference on South Asia in Wisconsin-Madison. \nOverview \nAs the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) era comes to a conclusion in 2015\, the year of 2016 ushers in a new set of official commitments from the world leaders for a more ambitious and bold 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. Despite its relatively young age and exposure to major environmental as well as socio-political challenges\, Bangladesh has been a role model in the developing world for making substantial progress in achieving MDG targets. The country has a steady economic growth rate of 6 to 7%\, reducing dependence on foreign aid significantly over the decades. In addition\, Bangladesh has made remarkable social progress in the areas of poverty reduction\, infant and maternal mortality rate\, child health\, access to and gender parity in primary school enrollment\, immunization coverage\, and communicable disease control. However\, Bangladesh is still in the process of regenerating its cultural\, social\, political\, economic\, physical and other structures and practices by strengthening existing institutions. As the country now accentuates the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development adopted last September at the United Nations\, engaging dialogues and critical discussions from multiple disciplines and scopes need to take place at this juncture. \nAims and Objectives \nThis 2016 preconference invited eight faculty members from different public and private universities in Bangladesh to participate in a week-­long workshop on writing and publishing in the US at the Subir and Malini Chowdhury Center for Bangladesh Studies at UC Berkeley. In this workshop\, participants reviewed and refined their submitted proposals\, ultimately for submission to refereed journals for publication. The proposals are centered around the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) that focus on: no poverty; no hunger; good health and well-being; quality education; gender equality; clean water and sanitation; affordable and clean energy; decent work and economic growth; industry\, innovation\, and infrastructure; reduced inequalities; sustainable cities and communities; responsible consumption and production; climate action; life below water; life on land; peace\, justice\, and strong institutions; and partnerships for these goals. We hope that the featured presentations will highlight how Bangladesh is now preparing to achieve the SDGs in each of the respective areas of their presentations. \nProgram: Speakers/Subjects\n \n\n\n\n\nASM Atiqur Rahman\nAgeing Situation and Support Systems in Bangladesh\n\n\nAnwar Hossen\nChallenges of International Water Laws for Water Management of the Ganges-Brahmaputra Basin\n\n\nSayed Saikh Imtiaz\nSofol Purush as Asol Purush: Modernization\, Nationalism and the Reproduction of ‘Hegemonic Masculinities’ in Bangladesh\n\n\nMubashar Hasan\nBangladesh\, Islam\, Politics and State\n\n\nJalal Uddin Sikder\nUneven Geography of Remittances among Migrant Households in Rural Bangladesh\n\n\nShanawez Hossain\nNatural Resources\, Income Inequality and Conflict: The Case of Developing Countries\n\n\nA.

SUMMARY:Blockade - a non violent resistant
DESCRIPTION:The documentary film\, Blockade\, is about the inspiring story of how a group of people in Delaware Valley area (Philadelphia\, Baltimore\, Washington DC)\, irrespective of their nationality or religion\, stood up in 1971 against the brutal oppression of the Pakistani military in Bangladesh\, the then East Pakistan. The military was carrying out genocide of epic proportions\, which led to a liberation war\, and eventually the birth of a new nation\, Bangladesh. The film covers a series of events that started in June 1971 when the New York Times published a story that two Pakistani military ships were coming to the Eastern Seaboard of the US to load up arms supplied by the US government without the Congressional approval and despite official ban. \nThe film follows the story of the Philadelphia resident peace activists Richard K. Taylor\, Phyllis Taylor\, Sally Willowghby; uPenn Professors Dr. Klaus Krippendorff\, Dr. Charles Khan and Bengali expatriates then living in Philadelphia area Dr. Sultana Alam\, Dr. Monayem Chowdhury\, Mozharul Hoque et al. Their non-violent activism eventually forced some of those ships to return empty. Amidst the denial of the US government\, they come up with an idea to create public/media awareness by a symbolic blockade with canoes and dinghies in front of the oceangoing ships that were being used for supplying arms to Pakistan. The groups successfully organize non-violent protests and generate a huge national media interest on the matter. The activists then go on to influence other groups and make a substantial impact on public opinion here and overseas. Through interviews\, archival TV footage and photographs\, the film weaves in historical accounts of the genocide in Bangladesh\, the misguided US foreign policy towards Pakistan at the time\, and the common man’s protest against injustice. \nFilmmaker Arif Yousuf lives in New Jersey and works in New York as an IT Executive. He has always been interested in Films and South Asian History. The Blockade documentary gave him the opportunity to combine two of his interests together and create a film. Encouraged by the success of his first film he is now planning several other documentary projects. Arif is also working on establishing a distribution company for documentary films from South Asia. He expects the company to support little known documentary projects and introduce them to worldwide markets via Internet. \nVenue: \nSouthAsiaNYU\, Institute for Public Knowledge\n20 Cooper Square\, 5th Floor\, New York\, NY 10003\n\nContact: \nipk.info@nyu.edu
