Rohingya Refugee Crisis: Towards Sustainable Solutions

The Rohingya people have been in the global spotlight since their mass exodus in August 2017 from Myanmar into Bangladesh, which has quickly evolved into one of the biggest refugee crises in the world today. The population currently hosted by Bangladesh amounts to 1.2 million. Alongside humanitarian urgencies, there are myriad challenges, including protection and human rights concerns, and legal, geopolitical, economic and environmental implications. At this critical juncture, ActionAid Bangladesh, BRAC University, and Centre for Genocide Studies-Dhaka University we have organized an International Conference titled “Rohingya Refugee Crisis: Towards Sustainable Solutions” to be held at Nabab Nawab Ali Chowdhury Senate Bhaban, University of Dhaka on 2-3 April 2018. We have convened this conference with the aim of offering sustainable solutions that will add impetus to the ongoing national and international efforts to resolve the crisis. The conference will feature participants from several countries, including Australia, Bangladesh, India, Myanmar, Netherlands, Singapore, Sweden, Thailand, UK, and USA. Participants from these countries will present paper (Research & Analysis) six specific issues.
