Short-term migrant labourers in Bangladesh: the pandemic & beyond

Bangladesh relies heavily on remittances from migrant workers, who face difficult and sometimes abusive working conditions. The COVID-19 pandemic has reduced their opportunities. Chowdhury Dilruba Shoma argues that initiatives by the government, NGOs and financial institutions can counter exploitation, prevent violence against workers (especially women) and maintain this source of income vital to countries like Bangladesh

PENGEMBANGAN PAPAN MAGNETIK KARIOTIPE PADA MATERI MUTASI KROMOSOM SISWA KELAS XII

Implementation of curriculum 2013 had a lot constraints, namely some material requires learning media to reach the goal of basic competencies, for example chromosome mutation material. Biology teacher of SMAN Kesamben stated that they facing difficulty in presenting the chromosome mutation material. Observation indicated that 84.3% of students said it was difficult to learn complex concepts and 100% of students required the learning media to help concepts understanding. Karyotype magnetic board is kind of learning media that able to solve that problem. The purpose of this study was to determine the feasibility of karyotype magnetic board media theoretically based on the results of the media validation and empirically based on student responses and student learning outcomes. Research and Development (R&D) method was used in this study. The media development was started on November 2013 to April 2014 in the Department of Biology, FMIPA, State University of Surabaya. Media trial was conducted in SMAN Kesamben Jombang on March 18, 2014. The results showed the quality aspect of media got a percentage of 98.25%, the effectiveness aspect of the media got a percentage of 93.25%, the material aspect of the concept got a percentage of 97.5%, and aspect of language got a percentage of 100%. All of them included into very well criteria. Overall the karyotype magnetic board media is good based on theoretical feasibilty with a percentage of 97.8%. Empirical feasibility got percentage of 95.48% and 100% based on student responses and learning outcomes, respectively. Classical completeness average score is 89.25. Keywords: development, karyotype magnetic board media, chromosome mutation

Gender is a Human Rights Issue: The Case of Women’s Entrepreneurship Development in the Small and Medium Enterprise Sector of Bangladesh

This article explores the significant gender gap that currently exists in regard to power relations in the Small and Medium Enterprise (SME) sector in Bangladesh. Particularly, the focus is on the discrepancy between the economic and social opportunities available to women as compared to men. The problem is treated in the context of the research theme “gender is a human rights issue”. It is argued that this gender gap impacts negatively not just on women but also on the performance of the national economy as a whole. Taking a broad international comparative approach informed by a liberal-feminist perspective (articulated most cogently in the work of Fischer, Reuber and Dyke), it is argued that far-reaching cultural change to address entrenched patriarchal attitudes is needed in addition to a program of legislative and regulatory reform. These reforms include full implementation of the national policy for women in development 2011 and a comprehensive credit policy for women entrepreneurs. Such changes will help turn the sector into an engine of growth in Bangladesh and at the same time give women greater independence and better access to fundamental rights.The findings show that traditional legal systems, traditional models of inheritance and entrenched male-dominated hierarchies in the financial system restrict the capacity of women entrepreneurs to run SMEs. Specifically, laws around formal economic rights do not support women in Bangladesh. These laws inhibit their ability to accumulate assets that can be used as collateral, which then makes it harder for them to obtain loans. Further, women are less likely to obtain a loan than men are even if they meet the requirements, and they face higher interest rates. To remedy this, women must be given the same property inheritance rights and access to credit as men. These fundamental rights must not only be granted, but also enforced
