Communication is Aid
Campaign by BBC Media Action (RCN 1076235)
When emergencies strike, BBC Media Action helps people get the information they need to survive. From the Ebola crisis in Sierra Leone, to the Nepal earthquake, to our work in Cox's Bazar with the Rohingya people, communication is aid.

Story

BBC Media Action has been broadcasting 'Lifeline ' programmes to support communities affected by humanitarian crises since 2001. In a time of crisis, information is as important as food, water or shelter in helping people to survive. We believe communication is aid. We are not funded by the BBC Licence Fee and rely on funding from donors to carry out our life-saving and life-changing work. During an emergency we inform people where to find food and shelter, how to access clean water and safe sanitation, where to access medical attention and how to keep their families safe. We are working with partners to produce daily radio programmes for refugees living in Bangladesh's Cox's Bazar. The programmes give people essential information, helping them to stay safe and protect their health and the health of their families. Your support can help us help the Rohingya people in Coxs Bazar, and many others around the world.
