Narratives and Civic Space Face to Face As part of the global trend of shifting and shrinking civic space, we have seen governments and other powerful actors deploy stigmatizing and delegitimizing narratives to undermine the legitimacy of CSOs and civic action. With this initiative, we want toexplore and better understand this dynamic and test the assumption that new narratives can help reinforce and open space for civil society and citizen voice.
HO-Bangladesh JR-II Violence in Rakhine State, Myanmar, which began on 25 August 2017, has driven more than 690,000 Rohingya across the border into Coxs Bazar, Bangladesh. Pre-existing camps and settlements have expanded with the new influx and at the same time new spontaneous settlements are formed and are quickly growing. People are staying in the forests and roadside places with limited or no shelter. Also, new arrivals are being absorbed by host communities. The refugee influx is putting an enormous pressure on existinginfrastructure, facilities and services both in the camps and settlements, and host community. The speed and scale of the refugee influx has resulted in a critical humanitarian emergency.

The key objective of the Bangladesh Joint Response is to providelife-saving basic assistance in settlements, camps and host communities, and to seek protection, dignity and safety of Rohingya refugees in Bangladesh. The project will focus on activities in the sectors where both needs as well as gaps in assistance arehighest and where DRA member organizations can make a difference. These sectors are: WASH, Food, Shelter/NFIs, Health and Protection. A strong protection focus is ensured in all activities.
CO-Pilot Grant Facility for refugee-led The corona virus has affected the communities especially in the markets and business premises people do not observe social distancing and other preventive measures of washing hands, wearing of face masks etc.  this has created the fear that the virus mayEscalate in the area and this calls for sanitization of the population in the target operation areas.
# Psychologically, many of the people in Ocea Quarantine center have been affected and this has caused trauma and stress. Since most of them have left their families without any support.
# The rampant and uncontrolled movement of the people within the target area makes it hard to identify a victim of Covid-19. With this state of situation, there is high chance of transmission to other community membersin case of any infection.
# During food distributions, it has also been observed that social distancing and other Covid 19 measures put in -place most at times are not observed. People use the same facilities like benches, chairs and this could easily applaud the spread of the virus in case ofany infection.
#  Some of the water points in the target area do not have hand washing facilities hence a risk to the community. So, the fact that in some of the water points there are no detergents available foruse by the those who come to fetch.
# Inaccessible information and communication mean that persons with visual, intellectual or physical disabilities are not receiving key informationabout prevention and assistance relating to COVID-19.
# Persons withdisabilities are facing barriers to access essential health services and WASH facilities due to environmental barriers; lack of accessible public transit systems; limited number of health workersto communicate and work with persons with disabilities in Oceaand Eden zones.
# Limited information channels that can be accessed by persons with disabilities. For example, many persons with disabilities have lower levels of access to social media and other technology-based platforms.
# Person with disabilities are disproportionately represented among older population who are known to be at increased risk in the COVID-19 pandemic according to scientific studies. This increase the rate of trauma among older population in fear of health risk and death.

ELNHA OGB Bangladesh The global humanitarian system is overstretched; unable to meet rising needs of crisis affected countries, and providing assistancethat is often insufficient, inappropriate and late. There is growing support for a shift of power and resources to local actors. Local actors are the first responders when crisis hits and know the local context better than internationals, and yet receive a tiny fraction of international aid.

This program sets out to turn this system on its head and allow vulnerable peoplein disaster prone countries to benefit from better humanitarian response. We have chosen to focus on Bangladesh and Uganda, two countries acutely at risk from humanitarian crises. The frequency and impact of disasters in both countries is being exacerbated by climate change.


To achieve this transformation, Oxfam will strengthen the capacity of local humanitarian actors, so that they can lead humanitarian actionin their countries. We will also give them the space to create a strong domestic humanitarian agenda, by giving them the opportunity to design and implement quality humanitarian programs. The program will also influence other international NGOs and donors to contribute to this systemic change.

The tangible results/changes that the intervention plans to achieve are: (a) knowledge of the ITEI by more citizens participating informally in the public debate, (b) knowledgeable radio editorial teams, producing and disseminatingradio programs on the ITEI, contributing to increase knowledge ongood governance of extractive resources; (c) increasing the active and effective participation of citizens in the public debate on transparency in the extractive industry; and (d)young people, university students informed about ITEI, participating in thedebate on extractive industry, (e) Citizens benefiting from the ITEI review report.

The action will be implemented through a participatory and collaborative approach with the parties (government, civil society and business), in the provinces of Gaza,Inhambane and Manica, specifically in the provincial capitals. The choice of these cities is due to the fact that these cities have so far not benefited from similar major initiatives in the context ofthe extractive sector, despite having potential in minerals and hydrocarbons in exploration and still to be explored. Example Gaza:Heavy Sands and Diamonds; Inhambane: Natural Gas and Heavy Sands and Manica Gold and other ores.
