Published six months after the start of the current influx of Rohingya people in Bangladesh, this short film highlights the voices and opinions of those most affected by the emergency – both Rohingya and host communities. The film is based on inputs from a range of agencies and concentrates on worries and concerns most expressed by those at the centre of the crisis, and was produced to provide input into the design of the new Joint Response Plan, seeking to ensure that the plan is informed by the needs and opinions of the people it seeks to serve.
The film is part of a new collaboration between BBC Media Action, Internews and Translators Without Borders, who are working together to provide a common service for community engagement and accountability across the response; collecting and collate feedback from communities affected by the Rohingya emergency. The work is being delivered in partnership with IOM, the UN migration agency, and is funded by the UK Department for International Development.
