Highlights The humanitarian situation for Rohingya refugees in Bangladesh remains

dire, with some 620,000 newly arrived refugees since 25 August 2017.

15 November marked the launch of Nutrition Action Week, led by UNICEF and the government, aimed at increasing treatment and prevention of malnutrition, and reached 12,127 children aged 6-59 months with Vitamin A; 8,238 children aged 24-59 months with de-worming; and 12,847 children with malnutrition screening; and referred over 3,500 at-risk children to outpatient treatment programmes for treatment.

In response to the measles outbreak, on 18 November the UNICEF-supported measles-rubella campaign for children aged 6 months-15 years was launched, targeting 336,943 children, scheduled to take place over 12 days and involve over 100 teams.

Despite challenges, UNICEF reached an additional 9,250 people with safe water through the construction of 37 new tube wells; delivered 130,000 litres of water to 30,400 residents in Unchiprang camp; and supported the construction of 1,299 new latrines, benefiting more than 60,000 people.

UNICEF is encountering significant challenges, including lack of funding and physical constraints to some of the locations; UNICEF has received only 34 per cent of the US$ 76 million requested to provide immediate life-saving humanitarian assistance to affected children and women.

Situation Overview & Humanitarian Needs The influx of Rohingya refugees from northern parts of Myanmar’s Rakhine State into Bangladesh restarted following attacks at Myanmar Border Guard Police posts on 25 August 2017. As of 9 November, the Inter-Sector Coordination Group (ISCG) reported that 620,0001 Rohingya refugees have entered Bangladesh since the attacks. According to ISCG’s rapid needs assessment, 58 per cent of new arrivals are children and 60 per cent are women including a high number of pregnant (3 per cent) and lactating women (7 per cent). With the new influx, the current total number of Rohingya who have fled from Myanmar into Bangladesh, coupled with the affected population in the communities, has reached a staggering 1.2 million2. There are 720,000 children among the new arrivals, existing Rohingya populations and vulnerable host communities who are affected and need urgent humanitarian assistance including critical life-saving interventions. The inter-agency Humanitarian Response Plan (HRP) for 2017-18 identified the areas of WASH, health, nutrition and food security and shelter for immediate scale-up to save lives in both settlements and host communities. As per the HRP, the Rohingya population in Cox’s Bazar is highly vulnerable, many having experienced severe trauma, and are now living in extremely difficult conditions. The limited WASH facilities in the refugee established settlements, put in place by WASH sector partners including UNICEF prior to the current influx, are over-stretched, with an average of 100 people per latrine. New arrivals also have limited access to bathing facilities, especially women, and urgently require WASH supplies including soap and buckets. Given the current population density and poor sanitation and hygiene conditions, any outbreak of cholera or Acute Watery Diarrhoea (AWD), which are endemic in Bangladesh, could kill thousands of people residing in temporary settlements. Urgent nutrition needs have been prioritized for children aged under five (including infants), pregnant and lactating women and adolescent girls. These include close to 17,000 children under five suffering from severe acute malnutrition (SAM) to be supported over the next six months. Nutrition sector partners plan to cover 70 per cent of the identified needs in the makeshift and new settlements, host communities and official camps. Moreover, children, adolescents and women in both the Rohingya and host communities are exposed to high levels of violence, abuse and exploitation including sexual harassment, child labour and child marriage and are at high risk of being trafficked. Finally, an estimated 450,000 total Rohingya children aged 4-18 years old are in need of education services.

Humanitarian Leadership and Coordination The overall humanitarian response for the Rohingya refugee crisis is facilitated by a sector-based coordination mechanism, the Inter-Sectoral Coordination Group (ISCG), established for refugee response in Cox’s Bazar. On the government side, a National Task Force (NTF) established by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA) leads the coordination of the overall Rohingya crisis. However, after the August 2017 influx, the Ministry of Disaster Management and Relief (MoDMR) has been assigned to coordinate the Rohingya response with support from the Bangladesh Army and Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB). In this structure, the roles of the Refugee, Relief and Repatriation (RRRC) Commissioner and the Deputy Commissioner (DC) of Cox's Bazar district are critical for daily coordination and information sharing. UNICEF and all other humanitarian organizations operating from Cox’s Bazar are required to provide daily updates to keep district authorities informed. At sub-national level, UNICEF continues to lead coordination in the nutrition sector and child protection sub-sector and co-lead the education sector with Save the Children. UNICEF also co-leads the WASH sector along with Action against Hunger (ACF). It is important to note that the cluster system has not been officially activated. The 1st Strategic Executive Group (SEG) meeting was held on 15 November. The SEG is designed to be an inclusive decision-making forum consisting of heads of international humanitarian organizations to ensure effective humanitarian response to the Rohingya refugee crisis. The SEG will be chaired by the Resident Coordinator with the IOM Head of Mission and UNHCR Representative as co-chairs. At this stage of the crisis, the SEG will be meeting on a weekly basis. The membership will include UN agencies, INGO's

1 Situation Update: Rohingya Crisis, Inter Sector Coordination Group (ISCG), 16 November 2017 2 The 1.2 million also includes 200,000 Rohingya before the new influx, 191,000 for contingency and 300,000 affected host communities. Prior to August this year, around 33,000 registered Rohingya refugees lived in two camps officially recognised by the Government located in Kutupalong and Nayapara in Ukhiya and Teknaf upazilas respectively, which have been functioning since 1992 under the care of UNHCR. In addition, more than 60,000 undocumented Rohingya resided in makeshift settlements (in Leda, Kutupalong, Shamlapur and Balukhali) and an estimated 300,000-500,000 lived scattered within the host communities through the district and across the country.

(ACF, MSF and Save the Children), and the Red Cross/Crescent movement (ICRC, IFRC). The SEG is a flexible coordination structure which will be adjusted as the situation evolves.

Humanitarian Strategy UNICEF’s comparative advantage is its ability to work simultaneously in refugee camps and host communities with the government, local and international NGOs and other civil society organizations, and coordinate and mobilize their support as appropriate. UNICEF is working in close coordination with all the humanitarian actors at national and sub-national level including government line ministries and departments, such as the Department of Public Health Engineering (DPHE), to effectively scale up WASH interventions, with the Ministry of Social Welfare for provision of child protection services and with the Civil Surgeon’s Office at the Ministry of Health to organize mass immunisation campaigns.

Summary Analysis of Programme Response

Nutrition

Since 25 August, a total of 101,916 children under-five have been screened for malnutrition, and out of 5,269 children identified with severe acute malnutrition (SAM), some 4,489 children have received treatment. The massive ongoing population movement and relocation of refugees to the new zones are still significantly contributing to the gap between children who are identified and children admitted for treatment. UNICEF and partners are conducting ongoing absentee tracing for children who have not shown up at outpatient treatment programmes (OTPs) as well as analysis on why this is occurring. A report by NGO Action contre La Faim (ACF) on coverage assessment conducted in Rakhine State in Myanmar in 2016 revealed that there are cultural barriers among the population regarding SAM treatment. UNICEF is working to address these barriers through its community engagement programme. 15 November marked the launch of Nutrition Action Week, led by UNICEF and the government to increase treatment of malnutrition as well as preventive nutrition coverage, targeting all children under five years for mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC) screening and referral, distribution of Vitamin A capsules and de-worming. On the very first day of Nutrition Action Week, a total of 12,127 children aged 6-59 months received Vitamin A capsules and 8,238 children aged 24-59 months were reached with de-worming. In addition, 12,847 children were screened with MUAC: among them, 3,493 children with a MUAC of less than 13.5 centimetres were referred to OTPs. An additional 231 children among those suspected of being at risk or having moderate acute malnutrition (MAM) were identified through weight-for-height as having SAM and admitted accordingly. The government’s commitment toward the Action Week was reflected by the visit by the State Minister of Health to the activities in Balukhali.

Health

Health needs on the ground remain overwhelming, with up to an estimated 348,000 children under age 15 in need of life-saving interventions through community-based activities such as vaccination campaigns. The risk of communicable disease outbreak – including cholera - remains very high given the crowded living conditions and severe lack of adequate water and sanitation. Between 6 September and 11 November 2017, a total of 611 suspected cases of measles including two related death (Case Fatality Ratio, 0.33 per cent) were reported from Cox’s Bazar. Of the total cases, 82 per cent were in the under-five age group. A total of 91 per cent (557) of the cases were from Ukhia, followed by 8 per cent (50) from Teknaf. Of the total number of cases, 98 per cent (596 out of 611) were Rohingyan refugees and the remaining 2 per cent (15) were from the host community (data as per 12 November, Mortality and Morbidity Weekly Bulletin). To respond to this outbreak, UNICEF alerted high officials at the Ministry of Health. The Directorate General of Health Services immediately called for a meeting with programme officials, WHO and UNICEF to agree on accelerated action. As a result, the response vaccination campaign, supported by UNICEF, started on 18 November for measles-rubella vaccination of children aged 6 months-15 years targeting 336,943children. The campaign will take place over 12 days and involves over 100 teams in flash locations. In partnership with the International Centre for Diarrheal Disease Research (icddr,b), UNICEF prepared a training programme on the management of diarrhoeal diseases and associated malnutrition in Cox’s Bazar scheduled for November 22-25. The objective of the training is to enable all the health staff from the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare as well as all the humanitarian agencies involved in treating diarrhoea cases to follow a standard treatment protocol. The training curriculum is tailored to the Bangladesh context and the methodology is designed as a combination of classroom settings and demonstrations on live patients. In the past week, 89 children were admitted to the district hospital’s Special Care Newborn Unit, with 10 per cent being from the Rohingya population.

WASH

An estimated 1.2 million people are in urgent need of WASH assistance: to date, the WASH sector has been able to reach over 47 per cent (566,416) of this population. The risk of water-borne diseases continues to be high as a result of the still inadequate

4

access to WASH services, and is further compounded by overcrowded living conditions, high faecal water contamination and low hygiene standards. An increasing influx of new arrivals continues on a daily basis and the highly populated camps have expanded to new physically challenging areas (hills and valleys) with limited WASH services. Despite the above challenges, an increasing number of refugees continue to gain access to WASH services through UNICEF direct support. During the past week, an additional 9,250 people were reached with safe water through the construction of 37 new tube wells, while 130,000 litres of water were delivered to 30,400 residents of Unchiprang camp through the UNICEF supported water treatment plant. UNICEF continues to support the Department of Public Health Engineering (DPHE) to truck 60,000 litres of water to Leda and Nayapara camps, which have unfavourable hydrogeological conditions for underground water resources. A total of 1,299 new latrines were built during the reporting period, benefiting more than 60,000 people. Since 25 August, an increasing number of Rohingya refugees continue to have access to a safe water supply and gender segregated latrines through UNICEF direct support. Overall, 182,850 people, or 41 per cent of the target, have gained access to a water supply through construction of 364 tube wells, installation of water treatment plants and water trucking. For sanitation, 297,650 people, representing 66 per cent of the target population, have been reached through the construction of 5,953 latrines. Construction of 10,000 latrines by the Bangladeshi Army based on a recent Memorandum of Understanding with the Ministry of Disaster Management and Relief has started; a third party monitoring company has been hired to monitor progress and the quality of the work. UNICEF has been strongly advocating to its partners and to the WASH sector at large to scale up hygiene promotion activities in the camps for prevention of an acute watery diarrhoea (AWD) outbreak and other WASH related diseases. To date, a total of 121,215 people have been reached with hygiene kits alongside key messages on improved hygiene practices. At the request of the sector, UNICEF is preparing a training of trainers for all the sector partners on hygiene promotion to ensure standardisation of messages and approaches. Two UNICEF partners - WaterAid and Practical Action - have commenced de-sludging activities, and their experience is being shared with the other partners to accelerate and scale up activities. WASH, nutrition and health sectors continue to work together on integrating interventions to address malnutrition and the risk of AWD and other epidemics, particularly in light of the recently released results of the Nutrition SMART survey. Faecal sludge management (FSM) continues to be a daunting challenge for the WASH sector, with an increasing number of latrines already filled and a lack of space to construct treatment ponds. UNICEF and the WASH sector partners are advocating with government authorities (RRRC, DPHE and the Army) to obtain dedicated land for safe sludge disposal and treatment and to ensure the de-commissioning of all latrines that are below the established standards in terms of pit capacity. UNICEF is also in discussion with its partners to review their work plans and ensure a sufficient budget for FSM and operations in line with the approved guidelines for the de-sludging and de-commissioning of latrines. A meeting was held with the Military on the urgency of sludge treatment and the identification of sites has begun, with 20 sites to be identified in the coming week.

Child Protection

Rapid identification and documentation of unaccompanied and separated children at the border and other entry points, including tracking of children and their caregivers to the camps, remains a priority to prevent secondary family separation. UNICEF deploys child protection border monitoring teams to rapidly identify unaccompanied and separated children. Three unaccompanied children were identified and placed with their neighbours from Myanmar at the Balukhali 2.1 registration centre. UNICEF’s work on gender-based violence (GBV) continues to move forward with a focus on adolescent girls given the prohibitive environment for them due to sociocultural norms. UNICEF is working with partners to increase strategies and approaches to reach the most vulnerable girls including younger, married and out-of-school adolescents to ensure they are safe when attending activities in line with best practices. In addition, there is an urgent need for guidance on how to undertake safe, ethical and confidential referrals. UNICEF completed a two-day strategic planning meeting to reach a consensus on the Child Protection and Gender Based Violence Strategy for the scale-up plan for Rohingya refugees and host communities. Main outputs included the identification of priority actions, scaled up timeframes, revised targets and identifying resources for a strengthened child protection response. UNICEF’s child protection team is also working with other programmatic on the measles campaign, scheduled to start 18 November, to ensure that all facilitators, managers and children at child friendly spaces (CFS), adolescent clubs and learning spaces have adequate information on prevention, identification of symptoms and taking appropriate action in response to measles and possible cholera outbreaks. UNICEF continues to provide technical guidance to the child protection sector to develop standard operating procedures (SOPs) for CFS. UNICEF will convene subsequent consultations to finalize the SOPs for the sector. UNICEF has been identified to co-chair the Prevention of Sexual Exploitation and Abuse network established in Cox’s Bazar. Given the complexity of the response and the severity of the needs in child protection, most sector partners are overwhelmed, thus affecting the quality of services being provided. To address this, UNICEF continues to ensure that partners embed capacity building into agreements up front. UNICEF will also increase on the job coaching and mentoring during technical field monitoring visits.

Education

A total of 453,000 affected Rohingya children and children from the host community (aged 4-18 years) urgently need access to education, including 270,000 newly arrived Rohingya children. In response, UNICEF aims to reach at least 201,765 children aged 4–14 years in the next six months - including 50,000 children from host communities. In the reporting period, with UNICEF support, an additional 660 Rohingya children aged 4–14 years old gained access to early learning and non-formal basic education through 378 learning centres across the camps and settlements. As of 16 November, UNICEF has reached 42,990 children with emergency non-formal education. This also includes newly arrived Rohingya refugee children and children from host communities. Four new transitional learning spaces were established in the Hakimpara and Jamtoli settlements during the reporting week, while 33 more are under construction. During the week, 50 new teachers were recruited and trained, with the total number of teaching staff reaching 614. Representatives from Denmark and the European Union visited UNICEF supported learning centres in Kutupalong and Balukhali, on 12 and 14 November, respectively. The delegation members showed a strong interest in the education activities and the growing needs encountered in the camps, such as scarcity of land and shortage of funds. On 13 November, Dr. Gowher Rizvi, Advisor to the Prime Minister, visited learning centres in Balukhali and noted the challenges faced by teachers and children due to the absence of a formal curriculum. Also during the reporting period, education sector members approved a standard design for learning centres. An emergency teacher training package (TICC) has been contextualized, and is currently with translators who are converting it into Burmese and Bangla. Discussions have been undertaken on the content of emergency in education curriculum, and initial plans include psychosocial support, literacy well-being in emergencies and emergency literacy and mathematics. In addition, a sector mapping exercise to identity gaps and overlaps in each of the zones was completed. UNICEF continues to face major challenges including finding spaces for learning centres, limited attendance of learners due to relief collection, lack of WASH facilities in learning centres, and a lack of appropriate pedagogy and materials to address immediate psychosocial needs due to the huge influx.

Communication for Development (C4D), Community Engagement and Accountability In the past week, UNICEF facilitated reaching out to 276,488 people with critical and life-saving messages through different community level activities and radio broadcasts. A 25-minute live phone-in programme titled ‘For Everyone’ on hygiene promotion was broadcast by Cox’s Bazar’s regional Betar Radio Station, covering around 200,000 listeners and magazine programmes on hygiene promotion were broadcast. Public Service Announcements (PSAs) were also aired throughout the week to raise awareness on the Nutrition Action Week (NAW). Around 50 outreach workers were trained on Inter Personal Communication (IPC) and key messages prior to the NAW and 40 megaphones were distributed to local partners for outreach workers to be able to announce messages on NAW. Around 70,000 people were reached at 70 different strategic points over the past week. Eight Information and Feedback Centres (IFCs) are now functional: one each in Kutupalong, Unchiprang, Kutupalong Extension, Balukhali, Balikhali 2/2, Shamlapur, Hakim Para and Balukhali MM. A total of 4,963 people in makeshift camps provided feedback recorded at the IFCs. Through outreach workers, about 5,250 people were reached with life-saving messages on various issues including hygiene promotion, health and nutrition. Twenty-five “model mothers” from the programme established to reach communities with key preventative lifesaving messages were oriented on IPC skills and provided with job aids such as flash cards, bags and umbrellas. On 16 November, some 31 majis, or Rohingya community leaders, and imams participated in an advocacy meeting on hygiene promotion, immunization, nutrition, Vitamin A and EPI/measles, and committed to disseminating the key messages to communities in their respective blocks and during Friday prayers. Focused group discussions were held at Balukhali and Unchiprang camps with adolescent groups and model mothers on ways to engage adolescents in promoting positive behaviour change in communities. Findings will contribute to joint child protection and C4D strategies for the response plan. There continue to be physical challenges to providing life-saving information to new arrivals settling in remote areas of the camps. To meet the gap, a large-scale community mobilization network will be established with 800 community mobilization volunteers deployed across camps to deliver cross-sectoral life-saving behavioural messages at the household level. Community influencers and leaders such as imams and majhis are being sensitised in a more systematic manner.

Supply and Logistics Over 30 metric tonnes of essential supplies - hygiene kits, pharmaceuticals, plastic tarpaulins, early childhood kits and adolescent kits - were dispatched to ten partners supporting all programmes during the reporting week. UNICEF also dispatched over 7,300

6

bottles of water at border entry points through the rapid response mechanism. The current value of supplies in the warehouse is US$ 1,031,029 with more supplies arriving this week. In addition to the two mobile storage units (MSUs) for warehousing which have been erected in Cox’s Bazar, UNICEF is also utilizing space in the common storage provided by the logistics sector. As part of UNICEF efforts to augment storage capacity in Cox’s Bazar, construction works for an additional MSU are due to commence in the week beginning 19 November.

Media and External Communication During the reporting period, interviews were held with Sky News and a team of Dutch journalists visited UNICEF-supported child friendly spaces for a feature story. UNICEF’s Deputy Executive Director provided key messaging on UNICEF’s interventions for Rohingya refugees during an interview with CNN. A social media campaign on the situation of Rohingya children is being conducted with the leading Bangla newspaper, Prothom Alo. Preparations for World Children’s Day on 20 November are ongoing. The Facebook page is updated on a regular basis – since 25 August, the number of followers has jumped from 860,000 to 1.4 million, or over 500,000 in under three months, demonstrating a rapidly growing interest.

Security During the reporting period, the security situation has remained stable although marked by ongoing minor crime, drug-related criminality and some reported domestic violence. Bangladesh security forces, including the army, border guards and police, remain deployed within the camp locations and represent a robust presence which provides safety and security not only for the camp occupants but also reassurance and support to humanitarian operations. Road traffic accidents due to poor road conditions and travel after dark remain a major safety concern for UN/ UNICEF personnel. Poor mobile phone and VHF networks in the camp locations remain a challenge for emergency communication, and this remains under review.

Funding

UNICEF’s 2017-2018 Humanitarian Action for Children (HAC) appeal for the Rohingya refugees requires US$ 76.1 million to provide life-saving and other services to over half a million children, which includes both the existing, new influx and the vulnerable host community children. UNICEF wishes to express its sincere gratitude to UN OCHA, Japan, Canada, Sweden, Denmark, the United States, the UK, King Abdulla Foundation and various National Committees who have contributed generously to the humanitarian response in 2017. Continued and timely donor support is critical to scaling up the response in Bangladesh. Given the scale of this crisis, UNICEF has allocated US$ 8 million of its regular resources for the critical response. In addition, US$ 11 million was advanced as a loan to the Country Office using the internal Emergency Programme Fund mechanism to ensure timely response and allow for the scale up of UNICEF’s humanitarian assistance.
