The Issue
Escalating violence in Myanmar’s Rakhine State triggered the world’s fastest-growing refugee crisis in 2017. Since August 2017, more than 745,000 Rohingya refugees have fled into Cox’s Bazar, Bangladesh.The scale and speed of the influx more than doubled the population living in the refugee settlements and resulted in a critical humanitarian emergency. The severity of gender-based violence coupled with restrictive social norms has made the Rohingya crisis particularly devastating for women and girls. UN Women works to ensure that Rohingya women and girls are safe and have access to education, health care, and economic empowerment opportunities.

With your support UN Women will be able to:
  1. Establish more Multi-Purpose Women Centres as safe spaces for women where women are safe, get psycho-social support, paramedic care, health and emergency services, and life-saving information.
  2. Build additional women-only toilets and bathing facilities, offering women greater sanitation and security.
  3. Support skills training to provide women with income-generating opportunities.
  4. Advance gender equality.
