Emergency response (includes bangladesh & myanmar): the need for humanitarian assistance kept growing, even more rapidly, as a result of escalating armed conflict along with mass displacement throughout myanmar. As of 2024, 18.6 million people are in need of humanitarian aid, with nearly 2.4 million displaced population since the military takeover in 2021. Approximately one million rohingya refugees from myanmar (burma) are seeking shelter in bangladesh. Cpi is responding to a variety of emergencies (natural or man-made), including the rohingya crisis in myanmar and bangladesh, through the provision of multisectoral life-saving assistance for the crisis-affected communities.
