Question to the Department for International Development:

To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, what steps her Department is taking to protect Rohingya women and girls from sexual violence in refugee camps in Bangladesh .

We recognise the immediate need to increase the provision of protection services in the Rohingya refugee camps. DFID is leading the way in supporting a range of organisations providing specialised help to survivors of sexual violence. We are supporting 25 women’s centres, which are providing safe space, psychosocial support and activities to women and girls. We are also funding case management for over 2,000 survivors of sexual and gender-based violence.
