An Agenda for a Dignified and Sustainable Rohingya Refugee Response in Bangladesh b. The Government of Bangladesh should work to improve camp security and build community resilience, on the basis of consultations with affected communities and humanitarian stakeholders. Security in the camps is best achieved in consultation with affected communities themselves, who are best placed to understand existing risks, with input from all relevant stakeholders who can support the design of appropriate strategies and preserve the civil and humanitarian character of the camps. Security can also be improved by: ➢ ➢ ➢ ➢ ➢ ➢ ➢ Improving refugees’ access to and participation in formal and protection-sensitive and community-centred informal justice systems through stronger engagement with legal actors. Designing formal education and skills training projects benefiting both refugees and host communities, to reduce aid dependence, enhance self-reliance and reduce social tensions. 291 Prioritising multi-sectoral GBV support and outreach services for Rohingya refugee and host communities. Engaging the support of camp authorities (CiCs/ACiCs, Bangladeshi Army, ApBN) in recognising protection needs, vulnerabilities, and risks; making effective referrals; and managing data ethically and securely as part of the Joint Capacity Sharing Initiative led by the Site Management sector. Lifting restrictions on Rohingya volunteer and cash-based programmes in the camps. acknowledging their role as legitimate humanitarian actors and helping them use existing skills and build new skills to foster productivity and a sense of hope and agency. Ensuring continued telecommunications access in accordance with the Government’s ‘Digital Bangladesh’ Vision to ensure efficient and effective information dissemination by the government and humanitarian actors, particularly in a pandemic setting, help maintain family and social/community networks, and counter misinformation, vulnerability to manipulation, and insecurity in and around the camps. Preserving protection related services for those most at risk, even amidst COVID-19 restrictions. c. The Government of Bangladesh should ensure an efficient, effective and predictable humanitarian response. The humanitarian community is supporting the Government of Bangladesh in delivering the Rohingya refugee response. Predictable administrative arrangements and unrestricted humanitarian access are critical for meeting the most urgent needs of refugees and host communities. Humanitarian partners face significant operational challenges within the existing system, resulting in delays, loss of resources and negative impacts on the well-being of affected communities. The current framework can be strengthened as follows: ➢ 291 Ensuring regular dialogue between the government and all relevant actors through clear and established channels to build mutual trust and understanding.
