An anticipatory action database has been updated to cover over 500,000 households, and funds have been allocated to enable rapid response. Additionally, a sovereign flood insurance scheme has been launched, providing coverage to over 100,000 vulnerable households.
Support is also being provided to Rohingya refugees, with a focus on nutrition, education, and resilience activities. Further details on these initiatives and the overall situation are available from the WFP Bangladesh Country Brief.
