Country: Bangladesh Description of the Assignment: A total of 700, 000 Rohingya have fled violence across the border from Myanmar into Cox's Bazar and the Chittagong Hill Tracts since August 2017. They have joined the over 300, 000 Rohingya who took refuge in Bangladesh in earlier - but smaller scale crises. The majority of the forcibly displaced Rohingya have settled in Ukhia and Teknaf, two of Bangladesh's poorest sub-districts (Upazilas), whose population has tripled as a result of the influx. Besides, Cox's Bazar remained one of the most disaster-prone districts in Bangladesh and is highly exposed to natural hazards and extreme weather impacts including cyclones, torrential rainfall, landslides, flash floods, storm surges, and extreme temperatures. Cox's Bazar district is also amongst the poorest districts in Bangladesh and has long struggled with food security, livelihood opportunities, insufficient water, and sanitation facilities, weak infrastructure, poor health and educational indicators. The influx of Rohingya has not only increased the size of the population at risk but is also driving the rapid creation of new risks due to deforestation, hill-cutting, unplanned infrastructure, and social tension.Since 2017, UNDP Bangladesh has been effectively responding to the Rohingya refugee crisis through its Crisis Response Office in Coxs Bazar. UNDP focuses on the challenges found in a context where the interlinkages between humanitarian-development-peace are pronounced within the larger Rohingya crisis response. UNDP focuses on both refugees and host communities in coordination with local government, private sectors, and humanitarian actors in the Rohingya crisis response. UNDP follows a multi-sector and area-based development approach with interventions in the environment, disaster risk management, livelihoods, social cohesion, conflict prevention, community security, the rule of law, governance, and development planning. Area-based development supports closer coordination between the development actors inside and outside the camps and effective linkages between emergency support and longer-term development and in between sectors. Under the guidance of the Head of the Sub-Office and in close supervision of the Project Manager of Disaster Risk Management (DRM) and Project Manager of Enhancing Community Safety, Peaceful Coexistence and Access to Justice (CSPC), the National Consultant Monitoring, Communication, and Reporting plays a crucial role in ensuring result-based monitoring, evaluation, first line of quality assurance, effective communications, reporting of the results, knowledge exchange and information management of the projects in Cox'sBazar.
