In the past years, the world has seen a great many changes.

For many, these were

the changes in technology and communication. But what mainly concerns us today is
the health condition of the common people. With the rise of conflicts in the Middle
East, Asia, and Africa in the recent years, the number of refugees has also
increased greatly and resulted to reach the number of 1 Billion. And for this
particular reason, we will be addressing today about the healthcare of the
refugees. Being in the 34th position in the WHO health ranking Denmark has proved
to the world how to ensure proper health care to the people by proper steps and
planned policies. But Denmark also recognizes the fact that Quality is a thing that
should not be depleted while rising the Quantity.

The Kingdom of Denmark is concerned about the health issues of the refuges mainly
in Europe and the Asian countries especially Syria, Bangladesh and CAF. Being a
nation which provides her citizens with one of the best healthcare facilities (life
expectancy 80.80 years, ranked 27th,) we are deeply concerned about the 250 million
International migrants among whom65 million are forcibly displaced from their homes
along with 763 million internal migrants. We also show our concerned about the
refugees in Turkey, Germany, and other developing nations.
Bangladesh can be an example of the condition of the refugees. Being developing
nation she is fighting with the epidemic and health care of the people but also is
providing healthcare to the 0.7million Rohingya mass who have fled and driven away
from their home country. 95% of the refugees do not have access to clean water let
alone good sanitation facility. We show our gratitude to Bangladesh to administer
the second largest Oral Cholera Vaccination Campaign which is 700,487 in total and
to WHO to enact the WHA 61.17 on the month of May of 2008 for the migrants. But at
the same time, they are facing the odd effects of it. It may seem odd that our
country has shown a PASSIVE AGGRESSIVE STANCE against the refugees is only because
we want to provide the refugees with permanent protection with all benefits instead
of temporary benefits with lower health, medication and sanitation facility. At the
same time, the DanishRefugee Council (DRC) is working for the better living of the
refugees and to mitigate their hardship in various Refugee Camps.
For better insight, we want to insight a quote of Demetrios. Papademetriou,‘“We
want to protect the fact that my country, a small country, is an extremely wealthy
country; that it provides these exceptional benefits to its people; and we don’t
want to compromise my ability to receive those benefits simply because more and
more people want to come in.”
Expressing our deepest sympathies and addressing these concerns, Denmark would
suggest the following to be in action as soon as possible:
To prepare, in full consultation and cooperation with the Member States and in
cooperation with the International Organization for Migration and UNHCR and other
relevant stakeholders, a draft framework of priorities and guiding principles to
promote the health of refugees and migrants.
To make every possible effort, in close collaboration with Member States, and based
on the guiding principles, to ensure that health aspects are adequately addressed
in the development of the global compact on refugees and the global compact for
safe, orderly and regular migration, in close collaboration with relevant
international organizations and to report them to the committee.
To conduct a situation analysis by identifying and collecting experiences and
lessons learned on the health of refugees and migrants in each region, in order to
provide inputs for the development of the framework of priorities and guiding
principles to promote the health of refugees and migrants.
To find out the areas of expenditures for the sanitation and health-related issues
of the Refugees. Besides to establish tube well and to work on the excavation of
wells in the African countries like Chad, Somalia.
To donate or allocate a part of the GDP for different NGOs or as donation member
nation to provide better sanitation and health facilities to the refugees.
To take a step to prevent the communicable diseases and preventing and reducing the
threats that are posed by the non-communicable disease.
