"Advocacy effort for a Sustainable Solution to the Rohingya Crisis"

As the Executive Director of the Rohingya Advocacy & Empowerment Forum (RAEF), I had the opportunity to meet with U.S. Senator Jon Ossoff of Georgia as part of my diplomatic advocacy efforts to highlight the Rohingya crisis and seek a sustainable, long-term solution.

During the meeting, I raised concerns about the lack of adequate and sustained funding and institutional support for Rohingya-led community organizations in Georgia, including RAEF. These organizations play a vital role in supporting Rohingya families, preserving our cultural identity, and addressing educational, employment, and community development needs.
I also emphasized the importance of moving beyond short-term humanitarian assistance toward meaningful, long-term solutions. These must include greater support for Rohingya-led initiatives, expanded opportunities for education and self-reliance, and sustained international diplomatic efforts to ensure the safe, voluntary, dignified, and rights-based repatriation of Rohingya refugees to their homeland, Arakan (Rakhine State), Myanmar, with citizenship, security, and fundamental rights guaranteed.

Our message is clear: the Rohingya people need more than humanitarian assistance—we need dignity, rights, justice, and a sustainable future in our homeland.

"Building Knowledge, Character, and Compassion"

The Rohingya Advocacy & Empowerment Forum (RAEF) is actively providing Islamic education alongside cultural awareness, ethics, and moral education for Rohingya children.

Our goal goes beyond academic learning. We aim to help children develop good manners, strong character, compassion, honesty, responsibility, and respect for others. Through these teachings, we hope to nurture a generation that embodies righteousness and goodness and can become positive role models—not only within the Rohingya community, but for humanity as a whole.

Education builds knowledge.
Character builds humanity.
Good values build a better future.

Together, we can empower our children with knowledge, faith, culture, and character for a brighter and more peaceful future.

The Rohingya Advocacy & Empowerment Forum has deeply saddened and is highly disturbing with the information about the recent rise in killings, kidnappings, abductions and other grave security incidents in Rohingya camps of Cox's Bazar. The refugees, having already suffered so much persecution, displacement, and violence in Myanmar, must not be faced with the reality of losing their lives or being kidnapped within camps they seek protection.
We urge with utmost concern the government of Bangladesh, security, camp officials, police, and law enforcement to focus strongly on these deteriorating conditions. Increased security measures, fair investigations, perpetrators accountability and real protection for the most vulnerable people must be guaranteed as soon as possible. The lives and dignity of all Rohingya refugees must be guaranteed.
Bangladesh has sheltered the Rohingya people for a number of years. We request, with humility and the utmost urgency and importance, that actions be intensified by the authorities for secure and safe living environment of these people.

The international community can and should also act upon the growing insecurities facing Rohingya refugees.

Rohingya lives matter.
Rohingya safety matters.
Protection is a right, not a favor.
