October 2024 - An estimated 1 million Rohingya fled political persecution in Myanmar, with the majority seeking refuge in overcrowded, temporary settlements in Cox’s Bazar District, Bangladesh.

As a result, they remain heavily reliant on humanitarian assistance to meet their basic needs.

November 2024 – 11.1 million people need protection-related support. These include 3.2 million children and 7.8 million people with health-related and shelter needs.

Also, the decline in mental health and unprocessed trauma reduced individuals’ ability to cope with daily life. This helps to increase protection risks, including GBV and child abuse, and caregivers’ capacity to provide care for children. With Global Affairs Cana
