The newly established Livelihoods and Skills Development Sector aims to operationalise the ‘Government of Bangladesh-United Nations Framework on Skills Development for Rohingya refugees/FDMNs and Host Communities’, endorsed by the Government in August 2022. The Sector will build the skills and capacities of Rohingya refugees/FDMNs commensurate with livelihood opportunities available in Rakhine State to support voluntary and sustainable repatriation in Myanmar when conditions are conducive. Rohingya refugees/FDMNs will be supported with access to transferable skills training in line with the Myanmar Curriculum. Access to livelihood opportunities will also be provided.
