NRC Bangladesh established operations in 2018, and currently maintains operational offices in Cox’s Bazar, Ukhiya, and Dhaka. NRC interventions are based on the humanitarian principles, which we promote and apply in order to increase the acceptance of humanitarian assistance amongst target Rohingya and Bangladeshi populations, as well as, to facilitate and enable access. Bangladesh is one of the world’s most disaster-prone countries while also hosting nearly 1 million Rohingya refugees in the District of Cox’s Bazar. The response to the Rohingya refugees is a protracted emergency in which displacement and recurrent climate disasters combine. This is set against a backdrop of continued conflict in Rakhine State, Myanmar and Government of Bangladesh’s demands for repatriation and return of Rohingya Refugees. The humanitarian context is characterized by multiple localized emergencies adversely affecting communities and populations with low levels of resilience, high vulnerability and acute poverty.
