There are an estimated five hundred Royal Bengal tigers in the Sunderbans, and about fifty to sixty thousand people depend on the land, rivers and forest for their living. As climate change, hurricanes and cyclones continue to affect the area, the fresh water that once irrigated farmers fields has turned salty, rendering the fields useless. Many people live barely one meter above sea level. Because of rising sea levels and shrinking forest, humans and tigers are fighting for space. The farmers are forced into the forest to hunt for honey, fish, or collect crabs, putting them at risk for a tiger attack.</image:title>

Momin has lived here for 15 or 20 years and works loading and unloading leather in the tanneries, earning 6,000 to 7,000 (about $77 to $90) taka a month. He says that living in the neighborhood is difficult but he has no other options. Often he and his family have health problems including diarrhea, headaches and jaundice. Hazaribagh was just listed in a report by Green Cross Switzerland and Blacksmith Institute as the 5th most polluted place on earth. It houses 95% of Bangladesh's leather tanneries, and every day they dump 22,000 cubic liters of toxic waste, including the cancer-causing hexavalent chromium, into the capital city's main river and key water supply, the Burgiganga. Most of the laborers work with the hazardous chemicals without any safety precautions, and there have been reports of horrific workplace accidents in the factories. Residents of the neighborhood slums are exposed to the extreme air, water and soil pollution. The tanneries export millions of dollars of leather good around the world, including the US and Europe.</image:title>

      <image:title>28 year old Rupa has her hair shaven to donate to the Gods at the Thiruthani Murugan Temple in Thiruttani, India. Rupa donated her hair with the wish that her daughter's illness is cured. The process of shaving ones hair and donating it to the Gods is known as tonsuring. It is common for Hindu believers to tonsure their hair at a temple as a young child, and also to celebrate a wish coming true, such as the birth of a baby or the curing of an illness. The {quote}temple hair{quote}, as it's known, is then auctioned off to a processing plant and then sold as pricey wigs and weaves in the US, Europe and Africa.</image:title>

Rohingya refugees said on August 21st that they did not want to return to Myanmar without their rights and citizenship, as repatriation is set to start on August 22nd. August 25th marks the second anniversary of the Rohingya crisis in Bangladesh. Myanmar's military crackdown on the ethnic Muslim minority forced over 700,000 to flee to Bangladesh from violence and torture. The United Nations has stated that it is a textbook example of ethnic cleansing.</image:title>

      <image:title>Sheuliy, shuts her eyes as Rezaul Karim throws flaming knives at her during a performance at the Olympic Circus in Jamsha, Bangladesh. Sheuliy, who doesn't know her age, got married to another circus worker when she was 10 or 11 years old. She never had a chance to go to school. Rezaul, who is 52 years old, joined the circus when he was a teenager. He dropped out of school when he was 12 years old. Rezaul enjoys his work in the circus. He like performing and watching his friends perform, and he enjoys the music. Generations of low income families are born into circuses with rarely the hope of ever working in different profession or escaping the harsh realities of the circus. The children, often very young, are trained to be full working members usually without the opportunity for an education. As modernization slowly takes over landscape of Bangladesh, the circus is a dying art form and is moving further and further away from mainstream entertainment.</image:title>

      <image:title>35 year old patient Barvine Akhter lies in a rice paddy outside the intake center of Pabna Mental Hospital in Pabna, Bangladesh. Mental health in Bangladesh is largely neglected and under financed, and the stigma of mental health is huge. In rural areas there are few doctors and families generally take the patient to a traditional healer first, who usually tries to exorcize the Jinn (spirits) with holy water and versus from the Koran. Families who have a mentally ill family member sometimes tie them up out of desperation and lack of education and options. There is only one government run mental hospital with 500 beds in the entire country. Less than 0.5% of government health budget is spent for mental health.</image:title>

      <image:title>Firoz Milon collects waste on the Buriganga river in Dhaka, Bangladesh. He sells one kilo of waste for 20 taka and says he averages 400-600 taka per day of work. Bangladesh has been reportedly ranked 10th out of the top 20 plastic polluter in the world with the Buriganga river known as one of the most polluted rivers in the country due to rampant dumping of industrial and human waste. Like many developing countries, Bangladesh lacks the infrastructure to effectively manage their waste which causes problems in keeping the waters safe for human and aquatic lives while dozens of tanneries on the banks of the river contribute industrial waste into the ground water. As June 5 was marked by the United Nations as World Environment Day, Buriganga symbolizes the general state of many rivers in Bangladesh, with the growing levels of pollutants and plastic waste consuming up all oxygen in the river and affecting our seafood while fishes consume bits of plastic which mimics their natural food sources and eventually lands on our dinner table.</image:title>

In South Asia, “hijras” are identified as a category of people who are assigned as male at birth but develop a feminine gender identity. They are generally outcasted from mainstream society, and have no other way of earning money other than harassing and extorting people for money. A new government initiative aims to change that. Recently, 40 Hijra were given homes, grants, loans, livestock, and livelihood training in an effort to make them self sufficient. (Photo by Allison Joyce/Getty Images)</image:title>

Nishi is president of the Sherpur Hijra Welfare Association. Her role is keeping them organized, united and managing employment for the members so they don’t have to beg door to door. In 8th grade she realized that she was not a boy. One day she found a Hijra group and joined them when she was 15 years old. Before moving to this village life was hard for her and her group. Landlords were constantly giving them trouble. “Now this place is my own. My own house and my own land. Here, freedom is absolute.” She says. She got a grant from the government to buy livestock. “In society we are not allowed to eat in any restaurant and people won't let us go near any mosque. People verbally abuse us. In this place i is not happening. No one here shows us any abger or abuses us. My goal is to make everyone self reliant and help everyone to get jobs or run a business. We need more help, but I feel confident that this is possible.” Nishi says. In South Asia, “hijras” are identified as a category of people who are assigned as male at birth but develop a feminine gender identity. They are generally outcasted from mainstream society, and have no other way of earning money other than harassing and extorting people for money. A new government initiative aims to change that. Recently, 40 Hijra were given homes, grants, loans, livestock, and livelihood training in an effort to make them self sufficient. (Photo by Allison Joyce/Getty Images)</image:title>

Shuvoja was interested in the Hijra community since she was a child and when she was 14 she ran away from home to live with them. They recognized the first time they saw her that she was one of them. She didn't talk to her family for 5 years after she ran away. When she finally went back one time to visit them, they were angry to find out that she had become a Hijra. They locked her in a room for a week and beat her and burned her with cigarettes before she was able to escape.  In South Asia, “hijras” are identified as a category of people who are assigned as male at birth but develop a feminine gender identity.

      <image:title>SHERPUR, BANGLADESH - SEPTEMBER 22:  Boiskahi runs her shop on September 22, 2021 in Sherpur, Bangladesh. When Boishaki was young, her father died. When her mother got re-married Boishaki was sent to live with her grandmother. One day when she was young a group of Hijras spotter her at a marketplace and went to her grandmothers house to try to take her away with them. When her grandmother refused, the Hijras told her “just wait, she is one of us. She won’t stay with you for long”. Shortly after that, Boishaki ran away to go live with them. “Maybe if I got the love and affection from my parents then I could have stayed in the mainstream society, but I find that in the Hijra community instead.” Boishaki says. Before moving to the village, life was hard. She had to rely on extortion to make enough money to get by. But life in the new Hijra village is more respectable, she says. She runs a small shop with a grant given by the government. When the Hijras first moved in, things were not peaceful with the neighbors. There was an argument and one of the Hijras was stabbed. Law enforcement moved in quickly and arrested the man, sending the signal that the government is serious about protecting the Hijras. Things have been peaceful since.

Why would they keep them?{quote} Thangavel says.</image:title>
