In the two IDCs, we provide medical and psychosocial care and distribute essential hygiene items such as soap and sanitary pads. We also conduct training on medical and mental health issues for immigration officers and medical assistants.
Advocacy plays a key role in our activities in Malaysia. We regularly engage with government authorities and civil society organizations to highlight the plight of Rohingya refugees. We continue to oppose the detention of refugees in IDCs and call for them to be issued identity documents, enabling them to work, access health care, and be better protected from exploitation and discrimination.
