ISDE Bangladesh, a non-governmental development organization, has started distributing food to the most vulnerable families in the East Bara Bheola and Kayerbil Union of Cox’s Bazar district impacted by shutdowns due to COVID-19 and flood hits. Alongside making changes in the food and protection materials distribution process in the Rohingya camps as well as host communities to mitigate the risk of Covid-19 and Flash flood, ISDE is working to provide support to the host communities and Rohingya communities of Cox’s Bazar as needed. As well as providing food to vulnerable households, ISDE is also supplying emergency food and protection materials to host communities in the flood and climate change affected peoples in Cox’s Bazar.
