Raihan Ferdaus, an experienced journalist from Bangladesh, has committed almost ten years to his work in the media field. During his working time with the BBC Media Action’s Resilience Team, he explored the societal and economic effects of climate change. Upon graduation, he chose to rekindle his passion for journalism. He became a staff correspondent at Jamuna TV, committing himself to thorough investigations into various urgent human issues. Ferdaus delves into the subject of climate change, examining its impacts on agriculture, coastal communities, and urban environments. He contends that climate change research is lacking because of inadequate data and highlights the significance of sharing personal stories instead of depending exclusively on government funding. Raihan Ferdaus’s investigative journalism in the healthcare sector in 2022 was nominated for the Foreign Press Association UK & Thomson Foundation Young Journalist Award 2023 for revealing the process of blood contamination and the public’s inability to access blood during illness. For investigative journalists under the age of thirty, this nomination is considered a major milestone. Following his coverage of the 2023 International Climate Conference (COP28UAE), was forced to tell the tale of the tremendous hardship that the ladies of Bangladesh’s coastal area bore. As a result, this project was effectively completed following intensive discussions with several research institutes, office administration, and the discovery of possible regions. The program interviewed all prospective stakeholders on the issue; however, solution journalism may not have been executed flawlessly in this case. We conducted a distinct study to ascertain whether the incidence of uterus tumor had indeed risen due to the saline water. Alternatively, are there other hygiene-related concerns? We are confident that a link exists between environmental degradation and unregulated economic development. This specific case of the health issue among coastal women, disguised as criminal finance, presents a grim perspective. Having served as a senior reporter at Jamuna Television, he has reported on a diverse array of subjects, such as health, education, climate impact, and investigative journalism. He has undergone safety and security training in investigative journalism and storytelling for low-budget film production at the National Film and Television School in the UK.
