DHAKA, March 7 — The United Nations called today for US$876 million in funding for Rohingya Muslims in the world’s largest refugee settlement in Bangladesh as the crisis entered its sixth year.
More than a million Rohingya are living in squalid camps in southern Bangladesh that make up the world’s largest refugee settlement, with little prospect of returning to Myanmar, which many fled in 2017 to escape an army crackdown. “With decreased funding, refugees stand to face even more challenges in their daily lives in terms of proper nutrition, shelter materials, sanitation facilities and livelihood opportunities.”
Refugees said it was crucial the world did not forget the plight of the Rohingya, who are unable to return to Myanmar, but have no future in Bangladesh, where they are not allowed to work.
