Ethnic Diversity and Challenges in Bangladesh
While nearly 98% of Bangladesh's population identifies as Bangalee, the remaining 2% represent a rich tapestry of ethnic communities—each with its own language, culture, and history. But who are these people, and what challenges do they face?
This book dives deep into the complexities of ethnicity in Bangladesh. It sheds light on the ongoing debates surrounding the identity and population figures of these communities. It reveals, through research and field data, the stark socio-economic disparities faced by ethnic groups, particularly those living in the plains. Moreover, it explores how the lives, cultures, and lands of forest and hill communities are increasingly under threat.
Through thoughtful analysis and in-depth discussion, this book offers readers a comprehensive understanding of the struggles and realities of Bangladesh’s ethnic minorities. It is an essential read for anyone interested in social justice, diversity, and the future of inclusive nation-building.
