Summary:

The achievements of the 2018 Joint Response Plan (JRP) for the Rohingya Humanitarian Crisis are visible to all those who visit the camps today. It comprised a tremendous collective effort from March to December 2018 to respond to urgent needs of nearly one million Rohingya refugees and over three hundred thousand Bangladeshis in the communities hosting them. There is no doubt that many lives have been saved.
Under the leadership of the Government of Bangladesh, humanitarian actors, including national non-governmental organisations (NGOs), international NGOs and the United Nations, have provided their support and expertise to the response. We are grateful to donors for their timely and generous contributions to the 2018 JRP – 69% of the requested US$951 million was received, which allowed for the provision of needs-based humanitarian assistance and protection.
