Summary

The Australian Humanitarian Partnership (AHP) Bangladesh Response Phase III (July 2020 – June 2023) addressed the ongoing needs of displaced Rohingya and host communities in Bangladesh. The AUD 42 million investment was delivered though a consortium model by six Australian non-government organisations: CARE, the CAN DO platform, Oxfam, Plan International, Save the Children and World Vision. An end of program evaluation was completed in June 2023.

The evaluation of the AHP Bangladesh Response Phase III assessed results against four outcomes focused on: the basic needs of Rohingya and host communities; self-reliance of the affected population; resilience of Rohingya and host communities; and reform of the humanitarian system. Findings are presented on program design and implementation, impact and sustainability, cost-effectiveness, inclusion, and localisation and transparency.

The evaluation found that the AHP made a significant impact in addressing the humanitarian and protection needs of Rohingya and host communities in Bangladesh. Challenges related to sustainable, long-term solutions remain.
