Foyazul Zobbor, a Grade-12 student of Life Destination High School, has expressed his dream of becoming an MBBS doctor and hopes to pursue higher studies at a university.
However, like him, thousands of students in the Rohingya refugee camps in Bangladesh are giving up their dreams after completing camp-level education because they see no opportunities for higher studies.
If the United Nations (UN) is committed to supporting the vulnerable Rohingya community, it obviously can take the initiative to create opportunities for qualified and university-level education, helping to build a better future.
The more education is denied, the less human rights are ensured under international law. Ignoring education means ignoring justice for Rohingya survivors.
After facing unbearable challenges, Rohingya students continue to create their own learning platform through the Examination Board of Rohingya Refugees (EBRR) while holding onto the hope that better educational opportunities will one day become available.

My name is Mohammed Faisal. I am a Rohingya student with a strong passion for education and personal development. I was born and raised in Rimmoguna, Rakhine (Arakan) State, Myanmar, where I spent my early childhood with my family and friends.
I come from a Rohingya refugee family. My father is Mohammed Jolil and my mother is Daw Jomila. My family has always valued education, honesty, and respect. Despite facing many hardships, my parents have consistently encouraged me to study hard, develop good character, and work toward a better future.
My childhood in Arakan was simple and peaceful in many ways. I enjoyed attending school, learning new things, and spending time with my friends. However, as Rohingya, we experienced discrimination and restrictions that affected many aspects of our lives. Access to quality education, healthcare, and economic opportunities was limited. These challenges taught me resilience and strengthened my determination to succeed.
The events of 2017 changed my life forever. Due to violence and insecurity, my family and I were forced to leave our homeland. We traveled for many days with very little food and water, facing fear and uncertainty at every step. Crossing the Naf River was one of the most difficult parts of our journey. We traveled in overcrowded boats, and many families were separated during the displacement. It was a painful experience that remains deeply embedded in my memory.
Today, I live in Kutupalong Refugee Camp, Camp-6, Block D-7, Cox’s Bazar, Bangladesh, one of the largest refugee settlements in the world. Although life in the camp presents many challenges, including limited access to higher education, freedom of movement, and employment opportunities, I remain committed to learning and self-improvement. I believe that education is the key to creating positive change for individuals and communities.
I joined Life Destination High School (LDHS) in 2023 and have continued my educational journey with dedication and enthusiasm. Throughout my academic life, I have worked hard to achieve good results. Some of my notable academic achievements include:
1st Position in Grade 1
3rd Position in Grade 2
3rd Position in Grade 7
These accomplishments motivate me to continue striving for excellence in my studies.
Beyond academics, I am committed to contributing positively to my community. I enjoy learning new skills, helping others, and participating in educational activities. I believe that knowledge should be used to serve society and uplift those in need.
My dream is to pursue higher education and build a successful career that allows me to make a meaningful impact. I hope to support the Rohingya community, advocate for education, and assist people facing hardship. I also aspire to study abroad if given the opportunity. Through dedication, perseverance, and faith, I aim to become an educated, responsible, and compassionate individual who contributes to a better future for all.
“Challenges may shape my journey, but they will never define my limits. Education, determination, and hope continue to guide me toward my goals.” Mohammed Faisal

A student life inside the Refugee camp, Bangladesh is not an easy carrier for all Rohingya students.
When the season is winter, the cold doesn’t allow them to sit for study.
When the season is summer, the heat doesn’t allow them to study as their classrooms turn into a hot hole.
When the season is rainy, the flood blocks their ways of homes to schools and their classrooms become a wet diagram where no free place for a student is to study.
