  • Title: Cox's Bazar multimedia - Aa'rar Bahadur (Our heroes) - Episode 10 (With English subtitle)
  • Summary: We meet a man name Mohammad Solim who cleans drains and works with others to pick up rubbish from his local area.
  • Theme: Health,  Humanitarian
  • Programme/Project: There are lots of people living in the camps who have different skills and abilities. They are working to solve their problems themselves and helping other people at the same time. To celebrate those people and inspire others, BBC Media Action had produced a new video series called Aa'rar Bahadur (Our Heroes) that highlights how Rohingya people living in the camps are helping each other to solve their own problems. In each 7-10 minute episode we are introduced to a new person and learn more about them, their family and friends and the community around them. We also discover how they are working to improve their own lives and to help their own local community. People featured in the series include a man who has a small garden and teaches others the benefits of growing their own food, a woman who turns rubbish into items she can sell and a carpenter who, with the help of others, fixes people’s shelters. These videos are for use in community centres, information hubs and in other spaces where the community meet; and can be downloaded freely for use by all humanitarian agencies working in Cox's Bazar. Aa'rar Bahadur is part of the Common Service for Community Engagement and Accountability, which is being delivered in partnership with Action Against Hunger and UNOPS and is funded by EU Humanitarian Aid and the UK Department for International Development. The series has also benefited from support from Global Affairs Canada.
