Abstract

Drawing on a recent student-led movement in Bangladesh that led to the ousting of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, this commentary illustrates how social movements can empower marginalised communities and challenge powerful institutions. By focusing on the role of social media and the reclamation of symbolic terms, the commentary demonstrates how counter-hegemonic narratives can mobilise public resistance. The Bangladesh case serves as a powerful example of how social and environmental accounting (SEA) can evolve to better reflect the lived realities of oppressed groups and contribute to social justice movements.
