Abstract Based on a case study of the lived experiences of Rohingya refugees in Bangladesh between 2017 and 2019, this article focuses on displaced people’s digital needs and innovative efforts to navigate the challenges in their situation. The article first discusses the major barriers faced by Rohingya refugees in using various digital devices and platforms and how these obstacles adversely affect them in obtaining necessary information and humanitarian services. Our findings from the field highlight the uniquely important role that mobile repair shops in the camps play in providing online-offline hybrid solutions to circumvent restrictions imposed on the refugee community by the host government. The findings also show that different types of community leaders have emerged and that Rohingya women use digital means to push back against double discrimination. The article concludes with policy considerations related to the geopolitically transcendent issues of displacement, democracy, and digital rights.

Day By Day

This study is about the world's largest refugee community, the Royingas of Bangladesh. It is based on an empirical reflection and interviews with some NGO professionals, UN officials, leaders from the Rohingya refugee groups, and some neighbouring community leaders. Displacement of people has become one of the chronic problems at all levels: global, regional, and national. There are several impacts from people's movements from their original areas to other areas due to conflicts and natural disasters. The authors think scholars have somehow sidelined this most contemporary issue. Day by day, the Royinga issue, their settlements, is a parable. Seeing the socio-economic situation, they felt that a political step needs to settle this burning issue—the lack of active diplomacy is vivid. Further, all-encompassing research is pertinent to imply a practical set of policies.

As part of the ‘Forced Migration and Media’ Series, day 2 was held on 18th of July 2016 and focused on engaging the local communities in Leicester. The purpose of the day was to share existing department knowledge and expertise that relate to migration and the media with the local community. The day brought together community leaders and organisations that dealt with migration and refugee matters. Majority of them represented the Somali community with representatives from some organisations that work with refugees and migrants more generally. The workshop took a practical approach by combining mini lectures with training sessions, which can enable community leaders and organisations to use lobbying techniques and media platforms to support and advance their work. As one of the organisers leading this particular day of the series, this article is my personal account of it.

RAISE IT UP! Youth Arts and Awareness (RIU) is an organization that promotes youth engagement, expression, and empowerment through the use of performance and literary arts and social justice activism. We envision a world where youth are fully recognized, valued, and supported as artist-activists and emerging thought leaders, working to create a world that is just, intersectional, and inclusive. Two fundamental tenets shape RIU’s policies, practices, and pedagogy. The first is that creative self-expression and culture making are powerful tools for personal and social transformation. The second is that social justice is truly possible only if and when we are willing to have transparent and authentic conversations about the oppression children experience at the hands of the adults in their lives. We are committed to amplifying youth voices and leadership and building cross-generational solidarity among people of all ages, particularly those impacted by marginalization. Though RIU is focused on and driven by the youth, a large part of our work includes helping adult family members, educators, and community leaders understand the ways in which systemic oppression shapes our perceptions of and interactions with the young people in our homes, neighborhoods, institutions, and decision-making bodies.
