Bangladesh's young coders with disabilities bring home two world titles and a bronze

Four young Bangladeshis — Md Shakil Mia, Sheikh Yamin Ahsan, Umme Habiba Binti and Arian Islam — have returned from the Global IT Challenge for Youth with Disabilities in Da Nang, Vietnam, with two championship titles and an individual bronze, competing against about 700 young people from nine countries. The team won the Best Chaperone and eContent categories and took bronze in eCombination, competing through the Bangladesh Computer Council and the Centre for Services and Information on Disability. On a stage built to test digital skill, they were not there to make up the numbers — they left with the trophies.

The upbeat factorinclusion you can measure — in medals, won outright against the world.
