CONTEXT, AND NEEDS OVERVIEW
Flash Appeal
A total of USD 84 million is urgently required to meet the lifesaving and critical needs of estimated 150,000 additional new refugee arrivals. 50,000 new arrivals were already accounted for in the initial JRP plan, but the numbers of new arrivals have largely over taken these planning figures. At the date of publication of this appeal more than 120,000 people have been biometrically identified, and thousands more are waiting to be identified, and still Rohingya are crossing the border fleeing violence in Rakhine.
This appeal outlines the needs, proposed interventions, and funding required to provide emergency and essential humanitarian assistance including food, shelter, water, healthcare, nutrition, protection, and education to the new arrivals. The activities and budgets for new arrivals summarized in this Flash Appeal are aligned with the Prioritized Joint Response Plan to ensure equity across all camps. It is important to note that these activities will be undertaken within the existing camp in Cox’s Bazar, and do not cover the costs associated with an extension of the camp to accommodate new shelters as this has not yet been approved by the Government of Bangladesh. Consequently, the needs outlined in this appeal are limited to lifesaving/ critical activities. This appeal, spanning 1 June to 31 December 2025, is focused exclusively on refugees and Forcibly Displaced Myanmar Nationals (FDMNs) residing in the camps. It does not include host community members, whose needs are already included in the 2025 Joint Response Plan.
