When Internews first started working with the Rohingya and host communities in and around Cox's Bazar more than a year ago, there was widespread confusion, stress, and tension due to a lack of easily accessible, trusted, clear information. Since then, Internews has been working in coordination with other partners, and with members of both communities, create a robust information ecosystem where everyone is able to get the lifesaving information they need and share their concerns and questions with the responding humanitarian organizations. A team of community correspondents have been trained and working as citizen journalists and trusted sources of information in the camps for a year now, and we are excited to share a new video that shows the work they are doing and its positive impact for the Rohingya and host communities living in and around the refugee settlements. Get to know some of the correspondents and other Internews team members working Cox's Bazar, see the work in action, and learn more about how episodes of Shantir Lai Kotha Koi (Talking Peace) are produced and shared.
