WASH KAP Survey Rohingya Cox’s Bazar, 2018

| Bangladesh | BGD |
Members of the Rohingya community from Myanmar have sought refuge in Bangladesh at least since the 1970s. Increased attacks on the Rohingya community in Myanmar led to a large increase in migration to Bangladesh and are mostly living in Rohingya refugee camps in Cox’s Bazar. The objectives of the survey were to monitor and evaluate the impacts of UNHCR WASH interventions, to identify and measure weaknesses and gaps, to provide guidance for future interventions and to make sure that UNHCR Bangladesh WASH interventions can be compared to UNHCR global standards. A total of 523 households were surveyed.

Sample weights for the household data were computed dividing, for each camp, the population by the sample size.
