摘要

Since 2017, the Rohingya refugee crisis in Bangladesh has intensified, adding to a significant number of Rohingya who have been living in the country since 1978. This ongoing crisis is driven by three main factors: The first one is the diminishing prospects for repatriation because the unstable political situation in Rakhine State, Myanmar, coupled with growing disinterest among the refugees themselves, has blurred the prospects for voluntary repatriation. The second one is barriers to local and social integration because escalating anti-Rohingya sentiment within Bangladesh has effectively stifled opportunities for local and social integration. The third one is the lack of third-country resettlement options because, apart from Bangladesh and Myanmar, no other countries have committed to resettling the Rohingya, leaving limited options for their future. The Rohingya refugees faced an atrocious past, are experiencing a precarious present, and will see an uncertain future. Bangladesh struggles to find a sustainable solution to the crisis while lessening international support for hosting 1.3 million refugees is exerting significant economic strain on the country. Consequently, the Rohingya crisis continues to loom with profound uncertainty. After a critical reading of the chapters housed here, this concluding chapter offers policy recommendations to redress the Rohingya crisis and calls on the international community to uphold principles of ‘global justice’ and ‘burden-sharing’ by providing support for the Rohingya refugees and solutions to the Rohingya crisis.
