- A Green Milieu Comic
নিঙ রঙ ( আলো )
A hand-drawn Bangla comic born in the hills — following a young indigenous girl as she carries learning, light, and a future of her own choosing back into her village.
Drawn by hand
Every panel is inked on paper by community artists, scanned, and shared so the original textures stay alive.
Rooted in dialect
Dialogue carries Bandarban’s everyday Bangla — humour, scolding, and the quiet wisdom of grandmothers.
Made to be shared
Free to read, free to print. Pass it around classrooms, youth circles, and family courtyards.

Stories the hills already knew
Niye Rong — “the new colour” — began as a notebook passed between students in our Bandarban learning circles. It grew into a printed comic that travels with our volunteers to villages without bookshops, schools without libraries, and children who rarely see themselves on a page.
The comic carries small lessons in big ways: girls’ education, forest care, mother tongue, and the quiet courage it takes to imagine a different life.
” When the children saw the girl on the cover, they said — she looks like us. That was the whole point. “
