In 2020, together with IOM, the idea grew to create a Rohingya to English/Burmese dictionary. The objective was to give Rohingya refugees located in Cox’s Bazar district a helpful tool to better express themselves to the international community.

Creating a dictionary in a language such as Rohingya posed a significant challenge. No fixed orthography exists, and three different scripts are used (including a completely unique one). This necessitated setting up a writing tool chain from scratch.
Together with IOM, BCM worked on collecting, translating and vetting Rohingya words and created a lexicon database. Specialized software was used following international standards as well as creating keyboard layouts for typing. An original font was also designed for the dictionary.
The result of the years long mining of Rohingya language building blocks and dozens of stages of refinement, can now be utilized through a dictionary app for both Android and iOS, a progressive web app and of course in print. All produced by BCM.
The daily Prothom Alo is the largest newspaper in Bangladesh, with a circulation wider than the Washington Post. In 2017-2018 Bengal Creative Media was invited to redesign the newspaper.
Redesigning the paper necessitated a comprehensive style guide which defined the typography, color and other design elements for all sections and features of the paper.
Alongside redesigning the paper, BCM designed a completely new type family of 12 fonts for the publication. All design elements and typefaces were optimized for the printing technology used by the newspaper.
In addition to the redesign and typeface, Bengal Creative Media provided consultation and training infographics and data visualization.
Prevention of Sexual Exploitation and Abuse (PSEA) connected with BCM to build an awareness and prevention campaign.

The objective was to build awareness of methods of exploitation, prevent ongoing and future abuse, and provide resources and sercurity for victims of exploitation and abuse.

BCM worked directly with PSEA to produce a logo, series of storylines for animation, and print materials. An illustrated world was created including 50+ characters, shelters, objects, and an environment. The resulting material has, and is, being diseminated in areas of vulnerability.

“This story needs to be seen by everyone.”
