Beyond the Classroom, Into the Community. ❤️
The Department of English continues its regular humanitarian initiatives, reaching communities where support is needed most.
This time, our team travelled to Paomum Tharkla Primary School (পাওমুম থার্কলা প্রাইমারী স্কুল), located in a remote and difficult-to-access hilly area of Lama, Bandarban, to provide general medicines and educational supplies for the students and the local community.
We were joined by one of our English alumni, now working at Dhaka Tribune, and a dedicated MBBS student from Sir Salimullah Medical College, Dhaka. The initiative was also supported by The South Asian Story (www.thesouthasianstory.org), reflecting our shared commitment to communities and stories that often remain beyond the mainstream.
The journey was difficult, but some places are worth reaching—and some responsibilities go beyond the classroom. We believe education is not only about knowledge; it is also about empathy, responsibility, and standing beside people who need us.
