The UK is a leading donor to the humanitarian response in Bangladesh and has provided £401 million to support the Rohingya refugees and host communities since 2017. During Minister West's recent visit to Bangladesh, she announced a further £10.3 million of UK funding. This will provide additional support to Rohingya refugees with clean water, hygiene and sanitation services, primary healthcare, protection services and shelter materials. UK funding will also provide assistance to those impacted by natural disasters in Bangladesh earlier this year. The UK remains at the forefront of international efforts to support Rohingya refugees.
