Support Rohingya refugee women

Thanks to your support, ActionAid has been able to provide emergency relief, offer critical physical and mental health services, and create safe spaces for women at Rohingya refugee camps in Bangladesh.

ActionAid and its local partners are currently supporting over 67,000 people in the Kutupalong camp in Ukhia Upazila subdistrict of Cox’s Bazaar. Now, there are estimated to be over 900,000 Rohingya people living in Cox’s Bazaar who have fled violence and persecution in Myanmar. Meeting urgent needs and reaching a just means of repatriating refugees has been a long, difficult road – with no clear end or solution in sight. While talks of refugees returning to Myanmar have taken place between the two countries, there is little certainty when and how that will take place.

This month, we issued a joint statement with 42 other organizations, warning that a hasty return could place the Rohingya people in greater danger, and calling on the governments to first secure the Rohingya people’s basic rights and safety.

Shelter and relief services are always in urgent demand, and international support plans continue to be vastly underfunded. ActionAid is dedicated to supporting Rohingya refugees and working to reach even greater numbers of Rohingya communities. To provide urgently-needed resources and continue meeting the needs of Rohingya refugees, we need to raise funds fast.

Will you share our project with just three friends to make this emergency response possible?

Your support makes a world of difference to refugee communities.

Thank you.
