Inclusive Education Sought For Persons With Autism
Speakers at a seminar in Dhaka on April 20 underscored the need for inclusive education to include persons with autism, especially women and girls, in the mainstream of education system.
Society for the Welfare of Autistic Children (SWAC) organised the seminar titled ‘Empowerment of women and female children even if they are with autism’ at the Bangladesh Shilpakala Academy auditorium in the city, marking the 11th World Autism Awareness Day and Month.
News agency United News of Bangladesh (UNB) was the media partner of the event.
Addressing the programme as the chief guest, Primary and Mass Education Minister Advocate Mostafizur Rahman said inclusive education is needed to bring individuals with autism under the mainstream education system. “At least one residential school at the thana level can play an important role to this end,” he said.
Mentioning that there is a need for special teachers for children with special needs, the minister said the government is sensitive towards the children with autism and it has taken many initiatives for their welfare.

Rohingya: Walk A Mile In Their Shoes
My reminiscences of Cox’s Bazar are deeply rooted in my childhood during family vacations taken with my parents and three siblings - horse rides on the beach, sunsets against the widest horizon, charcoal barbecues by nightfall, and copious amounts of seafood throughout our stays. My recent trip to Cox’s Bazar, some 20 odd years later, however, was starkly contrasting in that the circumstance was dire, one which continues to sit steep in my mind.
