In just a few days, 17-month-old Nishat’s* family lost everything.
Their home. Their hope. Their dignity.
Nishat’s grandmother, Asma*, broke her leg while escaping horrific violence. After reaching Bangladesh, she was immobile for months.
“I went to the hospital for treatment,” Asma recalls,” [but] they sent me back saying I would not survive.”
Against all odds, she’s regaining strength through rehabilitation – and cherishing precious moments with Nishat. Still, every day in their refugee camp is filled with hardship.
In Cox’s Bazar, the world’s largest refugee settlement, more than half a million Rohingya children feel forgotten. They’re growing up in overcrowded, unsanitary conditions – entirely reliant on humanitarian aid.
Caretakers like Asma are shielding their children from abuse, child labor, sexual violence, child marriage and forced recruitment into armed groups.
But hope is fading fast. With no school, no safety and no path forward, kids are showing alarming signs of anxiety and depression.
