A week with the Rohingya: work

This week, BRAC colleagues are taking you inside the Rohingya refugee camps each day to learn about a new aspect of daily life as a Rohingya refugee. Discover how refugees access skills training in the camps.

Most Rohingya refugees in Cox's Bazar are not permitted to work formally, leaving hundreds of thousands of adults with no way to earn income. People don't stop wanting to contribute, to build skills, or to provide for their families, and BRAC offers skills and livelihoods training throughout the camps in agriculture, tailoring, and artisan crafts, building a foundation for the future.

This video is part of A week with the Rohingya, our campaign running June 12–18 in recognition of World Refugee Day. Each day, our colleagues Uday and Sidra are taking you inside a different aspect of daily life in Cox's Bazar, home to the world's largest refugee camp, where over a million Rohingya refugees shelter. BRAC has the largest presence of any NGO in these camps, and 100% of gifts to this campaign go directly to BRAC programming there.

Follow along as our colleagues take you inside the refugee camps in Cox's Bazar for A Week with the Rohingya.
