December 2017 – Following the outbreak of violence in Northern Rakhine State in August 2017, more than 647,000 Rohingya crossed from Myanmar into Bangladesh over a period of several months. These refugees joined some 300,000 Rohingya already in Bangladesh following earlier waves of displacement. With GAC’s support, BRAC is helping to respond to the immediate water, sanitation, hygiene and health needs of 51,000 people. Activities include: (1) provision of safe drinking water; (2) installation of latrines and bathing cubicles that take into account women’s and girls’ needs; (3) provision of primary health care services; and 4) provision of sexual and reproductive health services, including delivery and antenatal care.
