Forcibly displaced Myanmar nationals in Bangladesh: a view from the ground

The International Court of Justice (ICJ) has resumed hearings in the allegations that Myanmar’s military committed genocide against the country’s Rohingya minority in 2017. Away from legal discussions at the Court, more than a million Rohingya people continue to live as refugees in other countries, with Bangladesh home to the largest number of them. Here Abul Faiz, Jacqueline Deen, Arjen Dondorp and Lorenz von Seidein present a health snapshot from their research with over 9000 Rohingya people at Cox’s Bazar, Bangladesh, to argue that the international community must show greater commitment to resolving this issue if justice is to be done not only to Rohingya people but to Bangladesh as well.
