Outline of Research at the Start |
Rohingya in Myanmar is one of the most persecuted minorities in the world. In August 2017 and early May 2018, about 713,000 Rohingyas arrived in Cox’s Bazar, Bangladesh because of the genocide. The purpose of this research is to find out the policies that the government is taking to provide education to Rohingya children. What are the main problems of this policy? And to find out what would be the best policy for Rohingya children?

Outline of Annual Research Achievements |
I have researched several Rohingya camps in Kutupalong. I visited schools run primarily by NGOs, and the emphasis was on the medium of instruction in language use in the non-formal camp classrooms. I visited five camps and eight schools run by several NGOs. I also visited Bhashan Char, where along with the school, I tried to know the infrastructure conditions of the camp residents. Last year, the research went smoothly. I took several interviews at different institutions. Moreover, because of the international NGO camps' contribution, children are better aware of the global world than the local students. Two articles will be published very soon. I am now working on two books-one on Bhashan Char and the other on Kutupalong camp. Final research will be done next year, and all the publications will be published in three to four years.

Current Status of Research Progress |
Current Status of Research Progress
2: Research has progressed on the whole more than it was originally planned.
Reason
This time I could administer the research according to my plan. I visited several camps in Kutupalong and could go to Bhashan Char and collect sufficient data. It is challenging to get permission to research Refugee camps. Because of heavy traffic in Dhaka, it takes longer than expected time to do the research. Nevertheless, primary fieldwork has been done. Literature completed. Two papers regarding Rohingya refugees will be presented later this. I am working on two articles regarding the Rohingya.

Strategy for Future Research Activity |
Next year will be the last year of this project. After that, I will do my final fieldwork. I have started writing books-one will be Rohingya Refugee in Bhashan Char, and the other will be on the Rohingyas in Kutupalong. In addition, I am working on several articles and will publish very soon.
