We need a social business model of medicine production
Patent-free global medicine production is the way to go in order to fight the next pandemic.
War on Gaza: There is only one road out
You and I are human beings, with family, perhaps children and grandchildren, certainly with friends and neighbours. We are of different nationalities, ethnicities, beliefs. We have all seen extreme poverty, and witnessed wars and the killing and the dying, whether firsthand or through the news.
Covid-19 fallout: It's time to redesign economics
The world is facing an unprecedented crisis with the coronavirus pandemic. Day after day, all the failures in our economic and social systems, and our thinking processes are being revealed. We were aware of these failures all along, but we ignored them, and we let them grow worse each day. We knew about global warming and that it is worsening, as well as about wealth concentration, and that it is getting worse. We knew about the problems of poverty, healthcare, deforestation, plastic pollution, gender inequality, and numerous other issues. We knew how to solve them. But we did not mobilise our capabilities to end these problems. Why? One explanation may be: we are so 'addicted' to the present system that we do not want to disturb it.

Abed left us. But it is not possible to bid him farewell. He will remain as our friend, and fellow nation builder forever. From the Liberation War to this day, he is present in every sphere of our society. There is no corner of the country which the refreshing wind of Abed’s activities did not touch. He is the main architect behind the monumental changes in Bangladesh’s society.

Can Wealth Concentration be Stopped?
Outcome of Cop 21 got me thrilled and inspired. After 40 years of battle between believers and non-believers finally believers won.

Paris has to end with a firm decision
Present development model is not an option anymore: it is as unfair as it is unjust, and left unchecked will take us to an irreversible process of self-destruction.
