ABSTRACT

The current Rohingya refugee situation in Bangladesh has become one of the most protracted in the world. A significant number of Rohingya women fleeing Myanmar experienced sexual violence. Gender-Based Violence is a significant problem facing displaced vulnerable refugee populations especially women and children. Rohingya women continue to be vulnerable to Gender- Based Violence within the Bangladesh refugee camps. There has been an enormous humanitarian response by the Bangladesh government, local Bangladeshi groups, and the international sector. This commentary summarizes what is known of the Rohingya experience and the humanitarian response.
