Improved WASH Services to the Myanmar Refugees Population

This project started to respond to the unprecedented influx of forcibly displaced Rohingya refugees from Myanmar. It emphasizes inclusive WASH services for all Rohingya communities in order to ensure that the whole community including people with disabilities and people facing additional vulnerabilities can access WASH facilities and practice their WASH needs easily.
