Late August 2017, more than 700,000 Rohingya fled the persecution in Myanmar. The Bangladeshi government and local civilians selflessly came forward to help ensure their survival and basic needs. After an initial assessment in September, Friendship was among the first registered NGOs, starting actions on October 5, 2017. Our first and continuous concern was to ensure respectful giving and address the most vital needs.
Thanks to our partners, our 200+ team members who mobilized themselves in a very short notice, the Bangladesh Army, local organizations and Rohingya camp representatives and members and their support we managed to build responsible and continuous support services since then.
Highlights:
Needs are still tremendous and evolving. Of course, the main concern is now to ensure the continuity of health services, but also to take care of adolescents, prepare for the winter period and strengthen all infrastructure, in order to restore dignity and hope among the Rohingya and the host communities.

Rohingya Response
The humanitarian crisis caused by escalating violence in Myanmar’s Rakhine State is causing suffering on a catastrophic scale. As of 27 January, 688,000 new arrivals have been registered since 25 August (UNOCHA). In response to the crisis, Friendship has setup clinics, maternity clinic, WASH (Water, Sanitation and Hygiene) infrastructures, social spaces for women and children, bamboo bridges, solar for static clinics, and billboards to create awareness on ‘ensuring dignity for all’

Friendship Overview
Friendship is a needs-based non-government organization (NGO) that aims to strengthen marginalized communities and empower people to reach their full potential through a sustainable, integrated development approach. Founded by Runa Khan in 2002, Friendship began with the innovative concept of a floating hospital with the vision of carrying healthcare to the ultra-poor in the remote communities. Since then, Friendship has developed a structured, three-tier healthcare system to provide comprehensive quality healthcare and information. Recognizing that the broader goal of enabling these communities to improve their living conditions and gain control over their lives requires more than healthcare support alone, Friendship has progressively built its distinctive integrated community development model, which includes: Health, Education, Climate Change Adaptation and Disaster Management, Inclusive Citizenship, Sustainable Economic Development and Cultural Preservation. Friendship supports communities mainly in the shifting northern river islands, known as “Chars”, of the Brahmaputra and Jamuna rivers and in the coastal areas of the Bay of Bengal.
