A. Purpose

The Information Management Officer (IMO) is a key WASH team member. The purpose of this post is to manage the collection, analysis and sharing of data/information for the WASH programme to make informed (evidence-based) strategic decisions and programme improvement.

B. Background

The humanitarian situation for Rohingya refugees in Bangladesh remains dire, with 975,350 1 refugees living 33 congested camps of Cox’s Bazar and Bhasan Char and completely dependent on humanitarian assistance. Of the total refugee population, 52% are children. As of 31 Jan 2024, the Government of Bangladesh has relocated 32,574 Rohingya Refugees to Bhasanchar to decongest the camps in Ukhiya and Teknaf Upazillas. As the current political situation in Myanmar remains unstable, new influx of refugees is expected. The UN estimated a possible scenario of 60,000 new arrivals in 2024. Any new influx of refugees will further aggravate the precarious conditions of Rohingyas and cause a collapse of the already fragile basic social services and economic situation of Cox’s Bazar District. The district is one of the worst-performing districts in almost all child-related indicators and one of the most vulnerable to disasters and climate change in Bangladesh. Climat-related hazards continue to erode the investment in WASH, compromising the overall public health and resilience of the host community and refugees. WASH related diseases continue to be a challenge every year. In 2023, more than 40 % of the Rohingya refugees had scabies and an increase in diarrheal and vector borne diseases such dengue was reported. The Standardized Expanded Nutrition Survey (SENS) 2022 and 2023 evidently revealed worsening and stagnating trends on child wasting (15.4 per cent critical level), and chronic malnutrition has remained very high (41 per cent) and unchanged for the past two years. COVID-19 has worsened the precarious vulnerability levels in Cox’s Bazar and creating new challenges to advancing inclusive, equitable, and sustainable WASH services. This is further complicated by the declining funding situation for Rohingya operations across all the humanitarian sectors.
