Surviving genocide Rohingya refugees' priorities for a post-genocide future
Myanmar’s Rohingya are the world's largest stateless community. Following decades of genocidal abuses within Myanmar, a brutally violent forced deportation to Bangladesh means most Rohingya live in the world’s largest refugee camp complex.
Whether this genocidal campaign will be terminal for the Rohingya rests largely on their ability to rebuild their society, reasserting their community’s unique characteristics, history, and values.
Using research techniques including in-depth interviews, focus groups, surveys, discourse analysis and observation to map Rohingya attitudes towards education, marriage, work, language, justice, religion, migration, repatriation and politics, this project will contribute to post-genocide scholarship and the Rohingya’s post-genocide future.
