CARE Bangladesh CD Zia Choudhury and Director - Women and Girls' Empowerment Program Ms. Humaira Aziz recently visited different makeshift refugee camps and spoke to many people to enquire about their current state, needs and requirements. The health centre was also visited that currently caters to treating children under 5 with severe acute nutrition.
More information on the health centre (community-based management of acute malnutrition - CMAM):
CARE Bangladesh is helping children under five with severe acute malnutrition who are from different makeshift camps in Balukhali, Moinerghona, Unchiprang and Hakimpara under Cox’s Bazar district of Bangladesh.
CARE is currently working in a consortium (Concern Worldwide and national NGOs SHED and SARPV) funded by UNICEF to implement the Community-based Management of Acute Malnutrition (CMAM) program.
In order to identify children with severe acute malnutrition without any sign of complication and to continue treating them at the comfort of staying home, CMAM intervention has started. CMAM allows treatment of Severe Acute Malnourished (SAM) children. Interagency estimate suggests an anticipated case load of 11,700 SAM children under five in these makeshift camps for the period of next 6 months.
As of now, 3 Outpatient Therapeutic Centers (nutrition/specialized nutrition service delivery points) are operational. CARE Bangladesh has already conducted a one day long training for the Concern Worldwide staff and provided on the job training to partner NGO (SARPV and SHED) service providers and M&E personnel from all three Centers.
Moreover, CARE is coordinating with Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF), Action contre La Faim (ACF) and Ministry of Health and Family Welfare to ensure timely referrals, supplies of medication and logistics from the Bangladesh Govt. CARE is also providing support on the monitoring, quality implementation, documentation and sharing the program results at national level.
