You're trusting the perspective of other people who are biased as well, and it's more about indigenous communities around the world rather than just Bangladesh.

There are many communities whose opinions and perspectives we just seem to ignore and we trust the "western" institutions who make publications on such matters

I'm not talking about how "wealthy" a community is in terms of material gains or technological improvements.

Communities see changes in their fundamental way of life due to industrialization which impacts their relationships with each other and their natural environments which, on average, seem to be worse than what they were doing before.

All of this industrialization comes from people wanting more profit, and we see working conditions and level of pay that would be unacceptable in the US but people write it off as being "okay" because "they're a developing nation" or "its a third world country" when the real reason is greed and a desire to skirt local regulations.
