youth perspectives on justice and security in the world’s largest refugee camp: Cox’s Bazar, Bangladesh. Topics of Inquiry During the initial planning phase in early 2020, the original research question that propelled the research project was: how do youth (males and females ages 18-29), understand issues of justice and security in Cox’s Bazar, and what role they play in fostering peace and justice? With the onset of Covid-19, the project was updated to canvass community perceptions about the disease, and the additional challenges and needs that have arisen for camp residents during the Covid-19 response in the camps. Building on earlier conversations about life in the camps, the community-based research team developed their own set of questions to investigate, focusing specifically on community experiences during Covid-19. Based on the issues that they deemed important to their community at the time, the seven questions the researchers ultimately selected to pursue are as follows: 1. What knowledge and ideas do you have regarding Covid-19? 2. Has the lockdown of Covid-19 affected your livelihood? If yes, how? 3. Has the lockdown of Covid-19 affected your relationship and communication with others? If yes, how? 4. What would you want from humanitarians and agencies as assistance to help you to prevent the spread of Covid-19? 5. Since the lockdown of Covid-19, what are the most difficult things you have faced that you want government and humanitarian agencies to know? 6. Why are people worried and afraid of going to the clinics or hospitals since the appearance of Covid-19? 7. Do you have any questions or anything else that you want to share with us? The report groups together five themes of community experience in the camps during the Covid-19 crisis: (1) Knowledge, understanding and perspectives of Covid-19; (2) The impact of Covid-19 on livelihoods; (3) The impact of lockdown on relationships and communication; (4) Perceptions of medical clinic and hospitals; (5) Concerns to share with (international) actors responding to the pandemic. 5
