In all, these investments have built or rehabilitated 2,300 classrooms, provided financial support to 2,700 educators, and delivered essential training on disaster-risk reduction, gender, mental health and psychosocial support and other key topics to teachers and administrators working on the frontlines of this forgotten crisis. The fast-acting First Emergency Response will restore access to life-saving education for 180,000 children in Cox’s Bazar, Bangladesh, home to the largest refugee camp in the world. Delivered by [UNICEF](https://edge.prnewswire.com/c/link/?t=0&l=en&o=4553369-1&h=1969381114&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.unicef.org%2Fbangladesh%2Fen&a=UNICEF) – in partnership with local organizations including Community Development Centre (CODEC), Jagorani Chakra Foundation (JCF), BRAC, Mukti Cox’s Bazar, Friendship, and the COAST Foundation – the new grant will increase access to inclusive learning opportunities in safe and protective learning environments. "Every child deserves the chance to learn, no matter the crisis," said Rana Flowers, UNICEF Representative to Bangladesh. "This support from Education Cannot Wait is a lifeline. It is more than books and lessons – it is a child’s bridge to dignity, stability and the future they deserve. This support will help us give Rohingya children the skills, confidence and hope they need to rebuild their communities when it is safe to return home. The future of the Rohingya people – their culture, their identity, their voice – depends on the children learning today." Declining humanitarian assistance – including funding for education – is derailing hard-won gains in Bangladesh. As of June 2025, more than 3,600 learning facilities for early childhood through Grade 4 remain closed. Recent analysis indicates that only half of the Joint Response Plan has been mobilized to date.
