Meet Shofiqure Rahman
“To be very frank, living without citizenship has shaped much of how I understand home and belonging. But my life is not only a story of what I have lost. It is also a story of what I am still trying to build”.
-Shofiqure Rahman
Shofiqure Rahman was born in Nga Yant Choung, Buthidaung Township, Rakhine State, Myanmar, and came to Bangladesh as a child after being forced to flee his home in 2017. He had completed Grade 3 and had just been admitted to Grade 4 when his education was interrupted by displacement.
For a long time, learning was something he had to continue around the limitations of refugee life, through whatever opportunities were available to me.
Today, he is studying Computer Science at the University of the People while also working as a Rohingya poet, writer and youth activist.
Besides that, he have published two poetry books internationally about displacement, identity, loss and hope, and he work with other young Rohingya to create spaces where they can learn, participate and tell their own stories.
Meet Abul Osmana
“My message to the world is simple: my story matters, my voice matters and we, as Rohingya matter too”.
-Abul Osmana
Abul Osmana is a Rohingya genocide survivor, He is currently surviving in the world's largest refugee camp in Cox's Bazar, Bangladesh.
In 2017, he was forced to flee his motherland due to extreme acts of war violence committed by the Myanmar military. He wrote in his words:
“I live in the World's largest refugee camp in Cox's Bazar, Bangladesh. Living as a refugee almost feels like living between life and death. Where my life has been stuck and stranded. The camp feels like an open- air prison. Sometimes I feel more like I'm a prisoner than a person. I feel like an orphan without parents. I'm like an outcast abandoned by the world.
