This report presents the findings from an independent evaluation undertaken at the request of the British Red Cross (BRC) support to the Population Movement Operation in Cox’s Bazar, Bangladesh, funded by the Disaster Emergency Committee (DEC). The purpose of the evaluation was to identify successes and shortcomings of the response taken by BRC and its Partner National Society the Bangladesh Red Crescent Society (BDRCS).

The evaluation covered the period October 2017 to October 2019. The evaluation found that this project was highly relevant and appropriate, having been designed and implemented in close co-ordination with both the host and the displaced communities, and benefiting from regular two-way feedback with volunteers and project staff recruited from within said communities. A great deal of trust was evident. There were however some learnings, as highlighted in the report.
