Refugee Empowerment Network -REN Empowering refugees with education, skills, and support for a brighter, self-sustaining future.

29/09/2026

Through our project “Inclusive Education for Peaceful Futures: Empowering Rohingya Refugees,” we created spaces for Rohingya children, youth, women, and community members to learn, speak, participate, and lead.

From inclusive education and community dialogue to peacebuilding and youth leadership, this journey has created meaningful opportunities for learning, participation, and empowerment.

With gratitude to State of Youth, KidsRights Foundation, and the ICPP Theme Fund for supporting this work.

Rohingya Genocide Remembrance Day | 25 August

Today, the Refugee Empowerment Network (REN) solemnly observes the 9th anniversary of the Rohingya Genocide Remembrance Day.

On this day, we remember the lives lost, the families separated, and the countless Rohingya people who were forced to flee their homes in search of safety and dignity. We honour the resilience, courage, and strength of the Rohingya community, whose voices and hopes continue despite years of displacement and uncertainty.

REN stands in solidarity with the Rohingya people and reaffirms our commitment to dignity, justice, human rights, and meaningful opportunities for refugee communities. We believe that remembrance is not only about looking back–it is also about ensuring that the experiences of the Rohingya are remembered, their voices are heard, and their hopes for a peaceful and dignified future remain alive.

We remember. We stand together. We continue to hope.

Meet Homaed Ishaque Moon Homaed Ishaque Moon
Photographer | Travel Writer | Visual Storyteller

Refugee Empowerment Network (REN) is proud to introduce Homaed Ishaque Moon, a passionate photographer from Dhaka, Bangladesh, whose work reflects the profound connection between art, humanity, and storytelling. Known to friends and colleagues simply as Moon, he believes that photography is not merely a profession—it is a powerful form of artistic expression.

During his work with Relief International in the Rohingya refugee camps in 2017 and 2018, Moon documented the lives of refugee children and families who sought shelter in Bangladesh. His photographs captured moments of resilience, hope, innocence, and dignity amid one of the world’s largest humanitarian crises. Several of his photographs were featured by a German online media platform, bringing international attention to the stories of Rohingya refugees.

Beyond humanitarian photography, Moon is an accomplished travel photographer and travelogue writer, whose work has been published in leading daily newspapers and magazines. His travels across many countries have enriched his perspective and strengthened his commitment to documenting the human experience through his lens.

At REN, we celebrate Homaed Ishaque Moon’s dedication to preserving stories that matter. His images remind us that behind every crisis are individuals, especially children, whose dreams, creativity, and resilience deserve to be seen and remembered.

A photograph can preserve a moment, but it can also preserve humanity.

We are honored to feature Homaed Ishaque Moon, whose powerful photography from the Rohingya refugee camps (2017–2018) continues to inspire compassion, awareness, and hope. Through his lens, the voices of refugee children and families reached audiences far beyond the camps, reminding the world that every life has a story worth telling.

🌱 Empowering Rohingya Youth Through Dialogue, Mediation & Leadership 🤝

Refugee Empowerment Network (REN) recently organized a meaningful workshop bringing together Rohingya youth and women to explore the power of dialogue, mediation, and leadership in building stronger and more peaceful communities.

Through interactive discussions, teamwork, and creative activities, participants shared their ideas, strengthened their communication and leadership skills, and reflected on how young people can contribute to peaceful conflict resolution and positive change within their community.

REN urgently calls on the Government of Bangladesh, the international community, humanitarian organizations, and all relevant stakeholders to take immediate action to ensure the safety, security, and protection of refugees living in the camps.
