From the beginning of the student-led quota reform movement on June 6 to the creation of an interim government upon the resignation of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina on August 5, a lot has been happening in Bangladesh recently.
This virtual panel brings together scholars in New York to help add personal texture and academic analysis to the headlines and provide an opportunity for questions and discussion. What has happened? What does this mean for Bangladesh and the region? What might come next?

Farhana Sultana, Professor of Geography, Syracuse University
Dina M. Siddiqi, Clinical Professor, Global Liberal Studies, New York University
Muhib Rahman, Postdoctoral Associate in Government, Cornell University

Moderated by Mona Bhan, Ford-Maxwell Professor of South Asian Studies and director, South Asia Center, Syracuse University
