Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Rohingya crisis: Growing up in the world's largest refugee camp
In Cox’s Bazar district in Bangladesh, there are a few large-scale refugee
camps for Rohingya people who fled from ethnic and religious persecution in
Myanmar. Nearly a million inhabitants live in those camps with little to eat
and live on. The camps are so overpopulated that social distancing is hardly
possible to prevent coronavirus from spreading. Also, the camps are so
vulnerable to cyclone season. Even if they can manage to live today, they see
little or no hope for the future. Despite such despairing situations, 20,000 children
are born there every year. What are their lives like? What hope do those young
lives have?
Watch the video to learn about the children in the most desperate situations.
