A wonderful contribution from Goethe-Institut Bangladesh to Oktoberfest 2026, hosted by BGCCI and the Embassy of Germany to Bangladesh! 🇩🇪✨

19 participants from our current B2 course took to the stage with their own “mini dramas” about Oktoberfest. Despite the short preparation time, they developed their own ideas, rehearsed, and delivered a lively performance.

A big thank you to all our B2 participants, German as a Foreign Language (DaF) expert Dr. Anja Doescher (trainer) for inspiring and guiding the group’s creativity, and Hasan Kamrul (teacher) for his support! 👏

R. Mevissen.

H.E. Dr. Rüdiger Lotz, Ambassador of the Federal Republic of Germany to Bangladesh, attended the event and emphasized the importance of cultural exchange in strengthening international ties.

Mr. Frank Werner, Director of Goethe-Institut Bangladesh, and Dr. Mohammad Nasir Uddin (Mobin), Executive Director (In Charge) of ICSBA, welcomed the distinguished guests. The event was chaired by Professor Dr. Niranjan Adhikary, Trustee of ICSBA and former Professor of Sanskrit at the University of Dhaka. The book was introduced by Professor Dr. Muhammed Shohrab Uddin, Head of the Department of Archaeology at Comilla University.

Held in a hybrid format, the event brought together academics, researchers, and cultural practitioners from Bangladesh and beyond, highlighting the strong cultural and scholarly ties between Germany and Bangladesh.

Sincere thanks to H.E. Dr. Rüdiger Lotz and everyone whose contributions made this occasion memorable.

Dhaka Jute Lab | Elemental Imprints
Bio Design Lab South Asia | August 2026
A journey into jute, its material possibilities, and the stories woven around it.

The Dhaka Jute Lab brought together participants, designers, researchers, and practitioners to explore jute through conversations, hands-on experimentation, and collective making.

From fields and mills to fibre, thread, and new forms, the lab invited us to look at jute not only as a material, but as a living connection between people, land, livelihoods, knowledge, and place.

Thank you to everyone who contributed to this shared space of learning, making, and imagining with jute.
