She writes and carries on different campaign on secular humanism, freedom of thought, gender equality, and human rights.

Ann Tickner has given her view on adding gender perspective to the study of international relations. In the modern era we cannot continue to go with the male dominated international relations theories. Women must be included to get a proper view on the international politics. So the writer has shown how to include women's experiences and views in different sectors of international relations in the book.

This environment, through hundred thousands of year’s evolution have brought us up from the first single cell to this intelligent human beings. As a part of this long timeline we learned to cope up with the environment, environment shaped us to become the superior being. Then we began to shape the environment according to our needs.
From the moment of learning to use fire human beings started to burn oxygen, a very important ingredient of the environment for the lives on this earth. Since then with every step of new technology we human beings found more ways to use the environment. Usage of the environment turned into abuses rapidly when we reached the moment of industrialization. But the proverb goes that what goes around comes around. So soon the environment also began to take toll on human civilization through untimely floods, drought, global warming, greenhouse effect and so much more. As we found the causes behind these environmental crisis we learned human activities are responsible for this unwanted situations. We created the problems, we have to solve the problems. So comes the idea of environmental conservation.
The history of human beings is mostly written by the males, so it mostly describes what the males have contributed to the development of society. When it comes to save the environment male are in the focus as well. The contributions of males are held in the spotlight by the patriarchal society to save the environment. But being almost half of the human population, the women are also part of the environment. They in fact face more difficulties due to environmental crisis.
Women are also working to contribute to the conservation of the environment both knowingly or unknowingly. There are female environmental activists who are actively working for a better environment for us and the generations after us. There are also so many women who unknowingly are contributing to the conservation of the environment through their daily household activities.
This paper is an attempt to review some literatures where women are focused to play the role of environment conserver.

Among them the female children are to face more difficulties than the boys. One of this is to be sexually harassed and exploitation. Also it can be assumed that there is a higher chance of them to get involved with prostitution, whether forced or intentionally. This paper will try to look for the link between homeless female street children and prostitution. To do so initially respondents from Komolapur and Kawran Bazar will be selected as homeless children. Also sex workers who were previously homeless street child will be reached to participate as a respondent to conduct the study.

The DNA genetic mutation have made it possible for us to evolve as the Homo sapiens as we are today. As it is said, there is no unmixed blessings on Earth, genetic mutation also comes with its own catches. One of them is the extra sex chromosome other than just XX or XY while forming a fetus. This extra chromosome makes one person to be neither male nor female. Third gender refers to those who belong to the gender which is neither male nor female. The third gender community also introduces themselves as ‘Hijra’. Hijra is the term quite commonly used to address the third gender in Bangladesh. In this paper the term Hijra will be used to refer to the third gender people.
Hijra people are sort of a taboo in our society. Though they exist, people do not want to accept their existence. This paper is based on the field interview with some hijra people. The writing looks forward to show their economic, social situation and power relations.
No matter how much the society do not want their existence the hijra people do exist. They have to earn their livelihood, maintain some social power relations and also. They live in the same society as male and female do, so they have a place in the society. This paper is a small attempt to seek these aspects of their life.
As a member of the society most of us grow up knowing there are only two genders. Male and female. But after growing up and learning to understand the gender differences, first time when I saw someone of the third gendered it was a surprise for me that there can be genders other than male and female. With the curiosity to know more about them I began to ask my friends and family about them. Soon I came to know that it was not considered decent to seek knowledge about the third gender. As no one wants to accept their existence in the society, most tried to avoid the questions about them. Some of the answers which I got from friends were that the third gender people are born because of sexual intercourse between human and ‘Jinn’. Later on when I came to know about the biological explanation of one person’s being born as third gender I realized that they are just human beings with some genetic difference than the most of us.
During field work for this paper I had a chance to know about them deeply and learn more about them. This paper will be a reflection of the findings from the field.
