Bangladesh's fragile ecosystems are drowning in plastic waste—but there's hope on the horizon.
BRAC is launching an innovative project that turns single-use plastic into raw materials, creating jobs while cleaning up critical areas like the Sundarbans and Cox's Bazar. Early success means it could roll out nationwide soon.

New ventures set out to tackle the plastic choking Bangladesh’s ECAs
The amount of single-use plastic that gets recycled as a measure to manage plastic pollution is insignificant in Bangladesh. However, some small-scale ventures working in this sector are trying to improve the situation. Currently, around 300 small-scale ventures are engaged in recycling plastic waste, specifically single-use plastic bottles and other plastics heavier than polybags, which […]

A Mixed-Methods Analysis of Repression and Mobilization in Bangladesh's July Revolution Using Machine Learning and Statistical Modeling
The 2024 July Revolution in Bangladesh represents a landmark event in the study of civil resistance. This study investigates the central paradox of the success of this student-led civilian uprising: how state violence, intended to quell dissent, ultimately fueled the movement's victory. We employ a mixed-methods approach. First, we develop a qualitative narrative of the conflict's timeline to generate specific, testable hypotheses. Then, using a disaggregated, event-level dataset, we employ a m…
