In December of 1970, Pakistan held its first ever democratic elections, paving way for a historic result as the East Pakistan-based Awami League, headed by Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, won a national majority in parliament. But what was also historic about this moment, was the fact that it lighted the fuse for one of the worst events in recent human memory. Just three months later in March of 1971, Pakistan military would begin Operation Searchlight, raiding upon the East Pakistan capital on Dhaka, and slaughtering thousands of students, teachers, politicians, and opposing military all in one night.

Architecture is often seen as something static — a monument, a statement, a symbol of permanence. But for Marina Tabassum, it's something else entirely: a living response to place, people, and change. In this episode of the Culture Shifts Podcast, I'm joined by Marina Tabassum, architect and educator based in Dhaka, Bangladesh, and designer of this year's 25th Serpentine Pavilion in London.We talk about her distinct approach to building in both the Global South and North. From the lightweight, movable Khudi Bari homes for climate-displaced families in Bangladesh to her London pavilion A Capsule in Time, envisioned as a structure with a second life as a library. Marina shares how local materials like bamboo, brick, and mud shape her work, and why true sustainability means designing not only with the land, but with the people.Drawing from collaborations with geographers, anthropologists, and communities themselves, Marina challenges the idea of architecture as purely aesthetic, instead positioning it as a force for resilience, equality, and quiet transformation.Subscribe to the Culture Shifts Podcast on your favorite platform, and follow us on Instagram, LinkedIn, Substack, or visit cultureshifts.net to stay connected.

Spokesperson Jens Laerke said nearly 180,000 pallets of food and life-saving supplies are ready to enter but remain blocked, despite being cleared and paid for. Israel has prevented food aid from entering the enclave since March, worsening the humanitarian crisis. " Israel kills five more aid workers in Gaza "Five aid workers from the Istanbul-based IHH Humanitarian Relief Foundation, working with the UN World Food Programme, have been killed in recent Israeli attacks on Gaza, the organisation announced. Two others were seriously wounded in the strikes over the past two days. IHH confirmed the deaths in a statement on X, condemning the attacks by Israeli forces."

The proposal follows initial negotiations held on May 16 in the same city. Lavrov credited Türkiye, United States and Saudi Arabia for helping create the conditions to resume the dialogue." US court blocks Trump's tariffs from going into effect "A US trade court has blocked President Donald Trump's ""Liberation Day"" tariffs, ruling he exceeded his authority by imposing broad duties on imports from trade-surplus nations. The Court of International Trade stated that only Congress holds the constitutional power to regulate foreign commerce, which cannot be overridden by presidential emergency powers. The judges emphasised that the decision was based on legal limits, not the effectiveness of the tariff strategy." Bangladesh sends first mango shipment to China as ties with India sour "Bangladesh sent its first consignment of mangoes to China, a symbolic move marking deepening ties with Beijing following strained relations with India. The export comes as China courts Dhaka in the wake of the 2024 uprising that ousted former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, who later fled to New Delhi. China's ambassador hailed the shipment as a “historic moment,” standing alongside Bangladeshi officials during the send-off."

In Dhaka, Bangladesh, artist Bishwajit Goswami creates a powerful new installation that captures the spirit of his homeland's rivers, lifelines darkened by pollution, yet still full of energy, beauty, and memory. Reporter Sahar Zand follows Bishwajit as he prepares for a major international exhibition in Paris. From his artist-led rooftop community space in a former tannery, to the crowded, chaotic riverbanks of Dhaka, Sahar traces the origins of a deeply personal artwork shaped by conversations, rituals, and found materials gathered along the river's edge.

My mother, Gretchen Elizabeth Wetzel, was born in Glendive Montana in 1949. Her mother's family had arrived in covered wagons in Willow Creek Valley in 1891. But this is not where the traveling ended. After moving to Missoula, my grandfather was hired by the Ford Foundation as an educational adviser for the Pakistani Government to set up pilot schools in East Pakistan. My mom was fifteen, when her family moved to Dhaka (at that time East Pakistan, now Bangladesh). Since there was no high school for her, she was sent to a boarding school in New Delhi. It was her first, but certainly not last, big adventure. When I look at my mom's life, I think of my Grandma's quilt, every piece of fabric tells its own story. My mom has lived in the most breathtaking places of Montana, behind mud walls in an Indian village, New York, Hamburg, Berlin, Valencia, and the quaint little village of Beyenburg, where I was born. Her life has been everything but boring. One of my earliest memories is seeing her as a child, her gorgeous brown braid cascading down her shoulder, thinking she looked like a queen. It is truly an honor to share her story with you. https://flatheadbeacon.com/e-edition/12_03_2020/mobile/index.html#p=76https://dailyinterlake.com/news/2018/mar/15/betty-wetzel-102-6/

In the forty-fourth episode of the Inspiring Stewards podcast, Nathan Jones speaks with Martha Das from Dhaka, Bangladesh. Growing up in a small village, Martha sensed God's calling from an early age and came to understand the importance of generosity. Through the many roles she has held throughout her life, she has witnessed God's provision and faithfulness, even in the face of hardship and persecution. She closes the conversation with a passionate appeal to churches and ministries: make room for young people to serve the Lord and encourage them to use everything they're learning, especially through media, to help advance the gospel of Jesus Christ.We'd love to hear your thoughts, comments, or feedback.

This is the Catchup on 3 Things by The Indian Express and I'm Flora Swain.Today is the 9th of April and here are today's headlines.The Reserve Bank of India has slashed the repo rate by 25 basis points to 6% in its latest monetary policy review. This signals lower interest rates on home, personal, and auto loans soon. The Monetary Policy Committee also shifted its stance from "neutral" to "accommodative," hinting at more rate cuts ahead. GDP growth for 2025–26 has been revised down to 6.5% from 6.7%, while retail inflation is projected at 4%. Lower rates aim to boost borrowing and spending amid slowing economic momentum.India has revoked a key transshipment facility that allowed Bangladesh to move export cargo through Indian territory to Bhutan, Nepal, and Myanmar. The decision, announced by the Central Board of Indirect Taxes and Customs, follows Bangladesh's growing economic ties with China in Northeast India. A June 2020 order enabling transshipment via Indian ports and land customs stations has been officially rescinded. The move is expected to strain Dhaka's regional trade logistics and could reflect India's strategic pushback against China's expanding influence in South Asia.India has cleared a high-value defense deal with France to purchase 26 Rafale Marine fighter jets for the Indian Navy. Estimated at over ₹63,000 crore, the deal includes 22 single-seat and 4 twin-seat variants, along with maintenance support, logistics, and training packages. This agreement strengthens naval aviation capabilities aboard aircraft carriers INS Vikrant and INS Vikramaditya. It also supports Make in India goals with offset obligations requiring domestic manufacturing components. The deal is expected to be formalized shortly, marking a major milestone in Indo-French strategic cooperation.Russia has formally invited Prime Minister Narendra Modi to attend its Victory Day Parade on May 9, commemorating 80 years since the end of World War II. Deputy Foreign Minister Andrey Rudenko confirmed that the invitation has been sent, and the visit is under discussion. The gesture comes after Moscow confirmed President Putin's scheduled visit to India later this year. Russia has extended invitations to several “friendly nations,” reinforcing diplomatic ties amid ongoing geopolitical tensions. Modi's participation would signify India's balancing act in global power dynamics.The US has officially enforced a sweeping 104% tariff on all Chinese imports starting April 9, escalating its trade confrontation with Beijing. The tariff includes existing levies and new duties under Section 301 of the Trade Act. This move follows President Trump's ultimatum to China to withdraw its retaliatory 34% tariffs. With Beijing refusing to back down, the White House has proceeded with the measure. The new tariff is expected to impact global trade flows, raise prices in the US, and further strain US-China economic relations.That's all for today. This was the CatchUp on 3 Things by The Indian Express.

BBC health correspondent James Gallagher investigates how our noisy world is damaging our health. He finds out why noise increases our risk of health problems, like heart attacks, sleep problems and anxiety, and can even affect how long we live. James spends two days in Barcelona – one of the noisiest cities in Europe – to meet the people whose health is being ruined by noise and the scientists and doctors trying to solve the problem. He also visits London to be experimented on in a lab to find out how noise changes the body, and hears from Dhaka, capital of Bangladesh, one of the loudest places on the planet.

* Netanyahu orders prep for ceasefire talks under US proposal Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu held a meeting with a delegation that returned from Qatar to discuss ceasefire negotiations in Gaza. At the end of the meeting that included ministers and security officials, Netanyahu ordered preparations for negotiations under a proposal by US President Donald Trump's Special Mideast Envoy Steve Witkoff. The proposal includes the immediate release of 11 Israeli hostages and the remains of half of the deceased captives. Israeli media previously reported that Witkoff presented a new proposal during ceasefire talks in Doha. * US, Russia discuss Ukraine, Yemen strikes US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Russia's Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov spoke to discuss the next stage in talks on ending the Ukraine war. According to State Department spokeswoman Tammy Bruce, the top diplomats "agreed to continue working towards restoring communication between the United States and Russia". Rubio also updated Lavrov on military activity in the Middle East, where US forces carried out deadly strikes against Houthis in Yemen. * Over 100,000 rally in Serbia against Vucic government At least 100,000 people descended on Belgrade for a mass rally seen as a culmination of months-long protests against Serbia's President Aleksandar Vucic and his government. Large crowds of flag-waving protesters clogged the downtown area of the capital despite occasional rain, with people hardly able to move and many stuck hundreds of metres away from the planned protest venue. Police said the crowd reached 107,000 people with no major incidents reported. Serbian independent media described the rally as the biggest ever in the country, saying the numbers were much higher. * Bangladeshi students urge UN to seek ICC trial for Hasina Bangladeshi student representatives urged the United Nations to assist in taking former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's case to the International Criminal Court over alleged crimes against humanity committed during the July uprising last year. The demand was made on Saturday during a meeting between a student delegation and visiting UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres in Dhaka. Guterres is in Bangladesh for a four-day visit, set to conclude on Sunday. * Trump mutes Voice of America, employees put on leave President Donald Trump's administration has begun making deep cuts to Voice of America and other government-run, pro-democracy programming, with the organisation's director saying all VOA employees have been put on leave. On Friday night, shortly after Congress passed its latest funding bill, Trump directed his administration to reduce the functions of several agencies to the minimum required by law. That included the US Agency for Global Media, which houses Voice of America, Radio Free Europe and Asia and Radio Marti, which beams Spanish-language news into Cuba.

Im Sommer 2024 musste die autokratische Regierung nach landesweiten Protesten zurücktreten. Seitdem führt eine Interimsregierung unter Nobelpreisträger Muhammed Yunus – bekannt als «Banker der Armen» - die Geschäfte. Doch die Gewalt nimmt zu, die Preise bleiben hoch und Reformen fehlen. Shima Akhter, 24, geht schon wieder demonstrieren. «Die Situation ist gefährlicher als im Juli und August». Damals hatten Studierende nach wochenlangen Protesten das autokratische Regime der Regierungschefin Sheikh Hasina aus dem Amt verjagt. Mehr als 1400 Menschen verloren nach UNO-Schätzungen ihr Leben im Kugelhagel der Polizei. Hasina und ihre Partei Awami League hatten das Land 15 Jahre lang mit eiserner Faust regiert, die Wahlen gefälscht und Meinungsfreiheit unterdrückt. Nach ihrem Rücktritt versprach Nobelpreisträger Muhammad Yunus demokratische Reformen. Doch die Kriminalität steigt, die extreme Armut auch. Zehntausende Textilarbeiterinnen und -arbeiter haben ihre Arbeit verloren. Das Vertrauen schwindet, dass Dr. Yunus und seine Interimsregierung die Lage in den Griff bekommen. «Die Flitterwochen sind vorbei», urteilt Polit-Ökonom Parviz Abbasi aus Dhaka. Jeder habe zwar gewusst, dass der Weg steinig werde. Aber niemand habe realisiert, dass die Übergangsregierung nicht in der Lage sein würde, Antworten zu liefern.
