dc.description"An estimated 626,000 refugees have fled violence across the border from Myanmar into Cox’s Bazar and the Chittagong Hill Tracts since 25 August 2017. The Government of Bangladesh has triggered wide response across Ministries to deliver basic assistance and medical services, coordinate private donations, and register the refugees. Humanitarian partners, in close coordination with the Government, are delivering basic food assistance, shelter, water, emergency latrines, and informal education to Rohingya refugees. Nevertheless, the influx has overwhelmed existing response capacities, and has put immense strain on local livelihoods, ecosystems, and basic services in already deeply vulnerable communities. In light of the above, UNDP and UN Women are supporting the Government and the humanitarian system to ensure that the crisis response is informed by recovery and development needs, and that economic, environmental and social risks are addressed and recovery actions are initiated. Based on a request for support from the Ministry of Disaster Management and Relief in mid-October, the agencies’ global mandate and expertise, and the Humanitarian Country Team’s call for augmented response capacity, the two agencies have carried out a development impact and recovery needs assessment to inform response actions, and to prepare for mid- to long-term interventions in the affected area."en
