Printing date: 04 May 2020 Sources: UNHCR, RRRC, ISCG Author: UNHCR - Sub-Office Cox's Bazar Feedback: [email protected] UNHCR / December 2019 3 PROGRESS OF QUICK IMPACT PROJECTS / COMMUNITY SUPPORT PROJECTS Summary The massive influx of Rohingya severely impacted the host community of Cox's Bazar district. The additional nearly one million Rohingya made the service and resources of two hosting sub-districts scarce and put the host community in a stressful living condition which might escalate the conflict. The local population of Teknaf and Ukhiya in the vicinity of Kutupalong and Nayapara refugee camps were compassionate and open-handed first responders to the influx. Initial planning assumptions foresaw an essential role in the protracted development requirements of the host community in conjunction with mitigating the influx' impact. UNHCR recognises the critical role of the Bangladeshi community in assisting the Rohingya refugees, particularly as the first responder providing food, clothing, shelter and other essential lifesaving support during the massive influx that started in August 2017. In 2019, UNHCR implemented different projects to improve social cohesion and develop a peaceful coexistence. Project interventions initially addressed the damages on public infrastructure or systems due to the refugee influx and tried to mitigate the negative impact on the host community. UNHCR implemented 33 Quick Impact Projects (QIPs) or Community Support Projects (CSPs) to achieve the objective of peaceful coexistence with local communities. Local communities were involved in the identification and implementing all the QIPs in Ukhiya and Teknaf sub-districts, hosting most of the refugee settlements. The project addressed the following sectors that include Education, WASH, Shelter, and Energy and Environment, and intended to produce rapid results. The projects included repairs or improvements to public infrastructures or systems, repairs road network, construct drainage systems, and strengthening the local capacity for disaster preparedness and response. The projects were implemented in collaboration with BRAC and NGO Forum for Public Health. Total 138,235 people (Host community-119,943 and Refugee-18,292) benefited from the projects. UNHCR will continue the support in 2020 to the host community to reduce the adverse impact of the refugee influx, and also for patronising the social cohesion between the two communities. UNHCR will increase coordination and collaboration with other UN and international agencies to address the unmet needs of the host community.

  • Covid-19 Situation Analysis
    Main Implementing Partner COVID-19 BANGLADESH SITUATION ANALYSIS CRISIS TYPE:EPIDEMIC MARCH 2021 Better Data Better Decisions Better Outcomes The outbreak of disease caused by the virus known as Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS-CoV-2) or COVID-19 started in China in December 2019. The virus quickly spread across the world, with the WHO Director-General declaring it as a pandemic on March 11th, 2020. The virus’s impact has been felt most acutely by countries facing humanitarian crises due to conflict and natural disasters. As humanitarian access to vulnerable communities has been restricted to basic movements only, monitoring and assessments have been interrupted. To overcome these constraints and provide the wider humanitarian community with timely and comprehensive information on the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic, iMMAP initiated the COVID-19 Situational Analysis project with the support of the USAID Bureau of Humanitarian Assistance (USAID BHA), aiming to provide timely solutions to the growing global needs for assessment and analysis among humanitarian stakeholders.

  • Annual Human Rights Report 2019 Bangladesh
    ANNUAL HUMAN RIGHTS REPORT 2019 BANGLADESH Prepared by Odhikar Date of Release: 08 February 2020 Foreword Human Rights Organisation Odhikar was established on 10 October 1994, with the efforts of some human rights activists, lawyers and academics who actively participated in the struggle against the autocratic rule of Lieutenant General Hussein Muhammad Ershad. Odhikar completed 25 years in 2019. Since its inception, Odhikar has been relentlessly struggling to protect the civil, political, social, economic and cultural rights of the people. Odhikar, as an organization of human rights defenders, has always sought to raise awareness of all human rights violations committed by the state and campaign for internationally recognized civil and political rights, to protest and prevent the state from violating human rights. Human rights violations are occurring in the country as an authoritarian government system is in place. In this situation, Odhikar has published the Annual Human Rights Report of 2019 monitoring the human rights situation of Bangladesh. This annual human rights report was prepared based on data collection, reports sent by human rights defenders associated with Odhikar from different districts of the country and information published in various media. Odhikar has been facing state repression and harassment since 2013 due to its human rights activities. Despite this, Odhikar has maintained its commitment and highlighted human rights violations through defending human rights and publishing reports. Due to the repression, control and curtailment of freedoms of speech and expression, Odhikar, too has had to practice restrain in its reporting. Odhikar expresses gratitude to all human rights defenders home and abroad, like- minded organisations and well-wishers who have cooperated with and expressed solidarity next to Odhikar.

Natural hazards mapping and risk analyses are not static activities. They are subject to change due to the constantly evolving situation, environment and available information. The products under the coordination of NatHaz TWG reflect the current status at the time of creation. Regular updates will be provided, depending on new findings and changing conditions. This report is meant as a living document. All actors are invited to pro- actively ensure they are using the latest information. The inventory of previously developed products is tabulated in Annex 1. The products are delineated in a set of Info-sheets (Annex 2) and technical notes (Annex 3). What is currently available? Hazard maps: Flood1 Landslide2 Wind3 Storm surge4 Each map shows areas that could be affected by the respective hazard. All map products may be downloaded here. The maps are simplified representations derived from more complex data (available on request). The latter requires an appropriate level of GIS proficiency, as well as technical expertise to understand the methodologies and interpret the results.
