Bangladesh has guaranteed its first medal at the ongoing Teer 24th Asian Archery Championships 2025, as the mixed compound duo Himu Bachhar and Bonna Akter stormed into the final after a sensational run in Dhaka on Wednesday.

In a thrilling semifinal at the Bangladesh Army Stadium, the Bangladeshi pair defeated South Korea’s Jongho Kim and Yerin Park 158–153, maintaining steady form across all four rounds (39-37, 39-38, 40-39, 40-39).

Earlier, Bonna and Himu began their elimination campaign by overcoming Bhutan 154–148, followed by a dramatic tiebreak win over Iran (19–18) after a 154–154 draw in the quarterfinals.

They will now face India’s Abhishek Verma and Deepshikha in Thursday’s gold medal match, after the Indian duo edged past Kazakhstan 156–153 in the other semifinal.

“We’re really happy to have made it to the final,” said Himu. “We’ve played together in a few international events before but never won a medal. This time, we’re determined to achieve something for Bangladesh.”

Bonna added, “It’s been nine years on the national team, and I believe this moment could finally bring something special. I hope this time will be different.”

Bangladeshi photographer Tanvir Hasan Rohan has brought pride to the nation by winning the Doha Photography Award 2025, securing third place in the “Colors” category with his captivating photograph titled “Traditional Rice Process in Bangladesh.” The image, portraying the timeless scene of workers drying paddy at a rural rice mill in Brahmanbaria, beautifully reflects the rhythm and heritage of Bangladeshi village life.

Rohan received the certificate, crest, and prize money of 75,000 Qatari Riyals (approximately BDT 25 lakh) from Qatar’s Minister of Culture, Sheikh Abdulrahman bin Hamad bin Jassim bin Hamad Al Thani, on November 5.
“This recognition means a lot because it represents the soul of Bangladesh — our deep-rooted culture and hardworking people,” Rohan shared.

The 2025 edition of the Doha Photography Award received 5,206 submissions, comprising over 31,000 photographs. In Rohan’s category, Sheima Almiutwa of Qatar and Ali Al-Qamish of Bahrain secured first and second place, respectively.

Born and raised in Dhaka, Rohan studied at DRMC - Dhaka Residential Model College and later pursued photojournalism at the The New York Institute of Photography. Now based in the USA, he has won over 700 photography awards worldwide, including the National Geographic Travel Photographer of the Year award, the Sony World Photography Awards, and the LensCulture-Magnum Awards.

Bangladesh celebrated the participation of two of its triathletes, Md. Imtiaz Bin Faruk Bhuiya and Mostafizur Rahman, at the Ironman 70.3 World Championship held today in Marbella, Spain. The half-distance Ironman demands athletes to complete 1.9 km of swimming, 90 km of cycling, and 21.1 km of running—making it one of the toughest triathlon competitions globally.

Md. Imtiaz finished the race in 7 hours, 30 minutes, and 50 seconds, ranking 490th in his age group (35–39) among 493 participants. Mostafizur completed the course in 8 hours, 6 minutes, and 10 seconds, securing 493rd place in the same age group. Both athletes earned their qualification for the World Championship from the Ironman 70.3 Malaysia event held in May.

Meanwhile, Bangladeshi female triathlete Ferdousi Akter Mariya also competed but suffered muscle cramps in the cold water after swimming 600 meters and was taken to the hospital. Mariya had previously completed the Ironman 70.3 Malaysia successfully.

Imtiaz, who works as Assistant General Manager (Finance & Accounts) at Fiber @ Home, said, “The championship was tough. The water was very cold, and the cycling route was steep, but we managed to finish.” Mostafizur, a long-distance swimmer and athlete since 2017, has also competed in ultra-marathons in Nepal and has received invitations for events in New Zealand and Germany.

In a landmark achievement, a 12-member team from the Aviation and Aerospace University, Bangladesh (AAUB) has made history by becoming the Champion of the RAeS International Light Aircraft Design Competition 2024–25, organized by the Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS), UK. This marks Bangladesh’s first-ever victory in the global competition, and remarkably, it came on the team’s very first attempt.

The global competition, organized by the Royal Aeronautical Society (RAeS), tasked teams to design a next-generation 6–8 seat amphibious aircraft capable of seamless operation on both land and water. The aircraft had to demonstrate hydrodynamic efficiency, aerodynamic stability, corrosion resistance, and mission adaptability.

AAUB’s winning design, “Albatross Skywave,” is a twin-turboprop, high-wing composite amphibious aircraft with a V-shaped hull, retractable tricycle landing gear, and wingtip floats. Designed for eco-tourism, maritime patrol, search and rescue (SAR), and medical evacuation (MEDEVAC) missions, it also features coral reef restoration as a secondary role. The team employed advanced CFD, FEA, and stability analyses, modeling the aircraft using SolidWorks, ANSYS, XFLR5, Orca 3D, Rhino, and X-Plane 12.

A new study from Columbia University’s National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse has found that children and teenagers who regularly share meals with their families perform better in school. The research highlights a strong link between family mealtime conversations and improved emotional, social, and academic outcomes.

According to the study, teens who dine with their families at least five times a week are more likely to earn higher grades—often achieving more A’s—compared to those who eat alone or less frequently with family members. Researchers attribute this to enhanced communication skills, emotional regulation, and vocabulary development fostered during mealtime interactions.

Beyond academics, family meals also promote stronger emotional bonds and help reduce risky behaviors such as smoking or drinking. The dining table, researchers note, becomes a safe space for children to express their thoughts, seek guidance, and learn values that contribute to overall well-being and success.

In an increasingly fast-paced world, Columbia’s findings remind us that sharing a simple meal together remains one of the most powerful ways to nurture both minds and hearts.

Team Eco Fighters from Daffodil International University (DIU) made history as Bangladesh’s first-ever representatives at the Spogomi World Cup 2025, held in Japan. The biennial event, organized by The Nippon Foundation, brought together 33 countries to compete in this unique sport that blends speed, precision, and environmental awareness.

The competition challenges participants to collect and sort trash efficiently, promoting sustainability and public cleanliness. Each team navigated a 45-minute collection round followed by a 20-minute sorting round across multiple sectors, testing both speed and accuracy under pressure.

In the mega final on Wednesday, October 29, Team Bangladesh achieved an impressive 8th-place finish, trailing behind Japan, Germany, Morocco, Canada, Thailand, India, and China, and finishing ahead of Senegal and France. This performance showcased the team’s skill, strategy, and commitment to environmental responsibility.

Rakibul Islam Bhuiyan is the first Bangladeshi to receive the Weidenfeld-Hoffmann Scholarship in the Bachelor of Civil Law (BCL) programme at the University of Oxford. His journey began with a setback: not securing a place in a public university in Bangladesh. “After HSC, I didn’t get a chance in any government university, so I enrolled in law at BRAC University,” he recalls. “I promised myself I would aim for the world’s top universities, even if it meant facing rejection.”

At BRAC University, Rakibul graduated as the Gold Medallist, achieving the highest-ever CGPA in his law school. Beyond academics, he gained significant practical experience, working as Senior Legal and Compliance Manager at BRAC International, the world’s largest NGO. His work spans private international law disputes, international labour standards, financial crime prevention, and commercial remedies across Europe, Asia, and Africa. He has led the incorporation of BRAC’s NGO in India, its microfinance company in Kenya, and its enterprise in Liberia.

Rakibul also boasts six years of experience in INGOs, NGOs, MNCs, and academia across 16 jurisdictions, mentoring 196 freshmen at BRAC University. He led the first-ever Bangladeshi team to qualify for the advanced international rounds of the Philip C. Jessup International Law Moot Court Competition, becoming the top-scorer from Bangladesh in 2021.

Reflecting on the challenges Bangladeshi students face, Rakibul said, “Many of us lack confidence and proper mentorship. We often hold ourselves back out of fear of rejection.” He relied on online resources and networking through YouTube, LinkedIn, and university websites to prepare his Oxford applications.

At Oxford, he finds the academic culture transformative. “Classes are seminar-style & teachers and students engage in deep discussions where every opinion counts,” he shared.

Rakibul hopes to use his education to help build a more just Bangladesh. “I want to work toward a system where people don’t have to wait years for justice,” he said with quiet determination.

Two Bangladeshi cosplayers, Arika Ahsan (Akira Cozer) and Khushnud Mahzabin (Shionchawn Cosplays), proudly represented Bangladesh at Pop Culture Hiroshima 2025 in Japan, held from October 17–19. The duo earned the opportunity after winning the Nihon Jai cosplay competition in August, where they portrayed Tenjou Utena and Himemiya Anthy from the classic anime Revolutionary Girl Utena.

At the Hiroshima event, participants from 14 countries showcased their creativity through costume parades and stage performances. Akira and Shion participated in both, donning Inuyasha and Kagome outfits for the parade before performing their acclaimed Utena choreography on stage. They made their elaborate costumes, accessories, and props by hand, with only the swords 3D-printed and modified.

Reflecting on the experience, Akira praised the warmth and hospitality of the Japanese and international cosplay communities, while Shion described the journey as “equal parts thrilling and nerve-wracking.”

As Bangladesh’s first representatives at Pop Culture Hiroshima, the duo hopes their success will inspire more local cosplayers to pursue global stages. “We have so many talented people here who just need a fair chance,” said Akira. “This is just the beginning for Bangladesh in international cosplay.”

These mobile facilities ensure that essential services continue uninterrupted, even in the harshest conditions.

The Earthshot Prize Foundation praised Friendship’s efforts for blending local knowledge with sustainable technologies to create adaptable, scalable models for resilience. With the £1 million prize, the NGO plans to further expand its initiatives, bringing ecologically sound and community-owned solutions to more vulnerable areas across Bangladesh and beyond.
