Rezaul Karim Chowdhury Executive Director COAST, another one Co-Chair CCNF, said  CCNF is working to promote human rights in Cox’s Bazar. Local NGOs, community organizations and local government are also committed to upholding the human dignity of Rohingyas until their repatriation. But these local NGOs and local government organizations have to be given spaces in response management, he added.

CCNF’s 11-point demand included -- there should be a government-led single line and single pot fund management, All sub-offices of intentional agencies should be shifted to Dhaka or Ukhiya to reduce the cost of journeys to camps and to reduce pressure on Cox’s Bazar town, Humanitarian workers should be given 24 hours access to refugee camps so that they will do activities against drug dealing, human trafficking, gender violence, and especially extremism in the evening and local NGOs and local government should be given access in ISCG, HoSoG, and RRRC meeting system and also in the National Task Force (NTF).
