Translation Summary: Most of the children in the Rohingya refugee camp in Cox's Bazar suffer from malnutrition. Various NGOs and INGOs are working for children through nutrition centers to address the problem of malnutrition in children. A mother named Rokeya (32) from Camp 18 said to VOA; her young child was very weak due to malnutrition. She takes her baby to the nutrition center and after regularly feeding them the nutrition they are given there, her baby is now perfectly healthy, able to walk, play with other children, and be happy all the time. A Rohingya community volunteer at the Nutrition center (World Concerned Media), Rozina (26) said to VOA; they go from house to house collecting malnourished children and taking them to the nutrition center. They are given nutrition according to their weight and age and at the same time the mother is counseled about the care of the child. As a result children come out of malnutrition at certain times.

He said, “Due to fencing in between the camps children are not able to move and play with other children or can’t do other activities. Besides lockdown has also affected their developments. Some NGO and INGO has the facility to engage them in various activity but it is limited. For the children, it is very important to provide them space to do activities and open the door of knowledge for them to learn. And NGO and INGOs provide them nutrient foods and they have vaccination program that helps them to grow well. But some parents avoid vaccinating their children as they are scared of those vaccines. I have seen many parents are worried if their children develop well mentally. Thus, they urge authorities to work on increasing various activities program”.
