Disaster Management and Climate Change & Adaptation

From October 2023 to March 2024, Bangladesh Social Service (BSS) implemented the Emergency Multi-Sector Rohingya Crisis Response Project (EMCRP) in Camp-15, Cox’s Bazar, funded by Kerk in Actie, for addressing critical needs in WASH, protection, and livelihoods for displaced Rohingya refugees. The project’s community-driven, rights-based approach ensured equitable access to safe water and sanitation while promoting child and youth protection, with special focus on gender- and disability-responsive services. By building local capacity and emphasizing skills development, the initiative has laid a foundation for sustainable resilience and long-term well-being within the vulnerable refugee community.
