Project Overview:

The southwest region of Bangladesh was hit by Cyclone Remal in May 2024, affecting mostly Bagerhat, Sathkhira, and Patuakhali districts. The cyclone caused extensive damage to infrastructure and crops; health services severely affected. Responding to this emergency, UNFPA Bangladesh has launched an emergency response project, under the United Nations Central Emergency Response Fund (CERF) and Emergency Fund (EF), aimed at addressing the life-saving Protection and Sexual and Reproductive Health (SRH) needs of women, adolescents, and transgender people in the affected districts. The project, which will run from July 2024 to December 2024, will provide direct support to affected people, including pregnant women. The initiative seeks to respond to the critical needs of the most vulnerable people affected by the natural disaster, including child marriage, maternal mortality, and mental health. UNFPA has a presence in all three districts and has the necessary staff capacity to implement the project. The project activities have been implemented through direct partnerships with local NGOs such as CIPRB. These organizations have responded quickly to the emergency, recruiting coordinators, midwives, and volunteers and arranging training for all.
