Question to the Department for International Development:
To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, what mental health care programmes her Department is funding for Rohingya refugees in Bangladesh.
DFID is leading the way in supporting programmes which provide mental health care among the Rohingya. We are supporting 30 ‘child friendly spaces’ to support children with protective services and psychosocial and psychological support. 19 women’s centres will offer a safe space, psychosocial support and activities to women and girls. We also support the provision of medical services, counselling and psychological support to Rohingya refugees who have either witnessed or are survivors of sexual violence.
