Vernacular Architecture of Bhutan as a Brand
Bhutan is an inland country in the Himalayan region of South-central Asia, and is known for its unique culture and vernacular architecture. Vernacular architecture of Bhutan reflects its rich cultural heritage, religious beliefs, and historical significance and the natural setting. This paper examines the unique attributes of vernacular architecture of Bhutan and how the Government of Bhutan has gainfully utilized it for promoting Bhutan's unique…
Seeking justice amidst chaos
The methodology presented here yielded a unique record of individuals purported to have directly committed acts of violence and destruction in Rakhine State in August 2017, forming the most extensive record of individuals implicated in ground-level perpetration of those crimes. This methodology can play a key role in accountability mechanisms for the Rohingya, and in other settings in which perpetrators are many and documentation of their crimes …
Consistency of reports of violence from northern Rakhine state in August 2017
The government of Myanmar has denied involvement in the 2017 attacks on Rohingya communities in northern Rakhine state and purports that reports of the violence and destruction are overstated. However, consistent reporting from multiple sources on the same locales clearly underscores the veracity of the evidence documented, both by investigative groups and as recounted by Rohingya survivors of violence. It is our hope that this cataloging and com…
Grand challenges in developing countries
Global hunger, poverty, exploitation of labor, illiteracy, infectious diseases, corruption, racism, migration of the productive workforce, inequality, gender biases, increased toxic emissions, biodiversity loss, and climate change are some of the important social and ecological challenges that the world continues to grapple with, with no satisfactory solutions in sight (World Economic Forum, 2016). These societal challenges have been labeled as “…

Using creative research methods and movement to encourage reflection in children
Reflection is a vital part of learning, and yet in early childhood, research work on reflection is most commonly on that undertaken by teachers, and not children. This article draws from a participatory study showing how creative research methods and somatic movement enabled 22 children aged 4–11 to reflect on their experiences and document their reflections, and report findings for children aged 4–8. The aim of the research was to encourage the …
Qualitative evidence of crimes against humanity
Background The Rohingya ethnic minority population in northern Rakhine state, Myanmar, have experienced some of the most protracted situations of persecution. Government-led clearance operations in August 2017 were one of many, but notably one of the most devastating, attacks on the population. The study aimed to conduct a multiphase mixed-methods assessment of the prevalence and contexts of violence and mortality across affected hamlets in north…

An anonymous grant to Physicians for Human Rights
Ableism in academia
Recent coverage in higher education newspapers and social media platforms implies that chronic conditions, illnesses and disabilities are becoming more prominent amongst academics. Changes to funding structures, increased globalisation, marketisation and bureaucratisation of higher education have resulted in a performance-driven working environment where teaching workload and pressures to publish are further intensified due to excellence exercise…
Will Ebola change the game? Ten essential reforms before the next pandemic. The report of the Harvard-LSHTM Independent Panel on the Global Response to Ebola
The west African Ebola epidemic that began in 2013 exposed deep inadequacies in the national and international institutions responsible for protecting the public from the far-reaching human, social, economic, and political consequences of infectious disease outbreaks. The Ebola epidemic raised a crucial question: what reforms are needed to mend the fragile global system for outbreak prevention and response, rebuild confidence, and prevent future …
