Abstract

The Rohingya refugee crisis has profoundly impacted Bangladesh, particularly in the Cox’s Bazar region, where over one million refugees have sought shelter since 2017. This paper examines the environmental footprint and social implications of this influx, focusing on the challenges and opportunities it presents. The environmental analysis reveals significant deforestation, soil erosion, and strain on water resources due to the establishment of refugee camps (UNDP, 2018; ReliefWeb, 2018). These changes have increased the risk of natural disasters such as landslides and flooding, necessitating sustainable management strategies.
