CA-3-A034976001 2026-08-18T06:32:38 This project contributes to the development of civil society organizations and to building their capacity to identify needs, deliver services, and promote the interests of vulnerable and displaced people. An emphasis is placed on the participation of ethnic nationalities and women. Activities include: providing humanitarian assistance to Burmese refugees living in refugee camps in Thailand; the delivery of basic primary health care (including maternal and child health care) to displaced people in Burma's border areas; and civil society research, advocacy, and capacity-building on the issues of gender and violence against women, environmental degradation, forced displacement, human rights, drug abuse, and independent media. The project works with Burmese organizations based in Thailand, Bangladesh, India, Malaysia, and China. Local executing agencies include the Thailand-Burma Border Consortium and the Mae Tao Clinic.

Since 2010 a total of 165,633 refugees in Thailand benefitted (94,497 for the entire period, 45,275 for three years, 15,861 for two years, and approximately 10,000 for one year). (2) 14 health partners treated over 314,000 cases in 2013 for a total of 1,322,657 cases since 2010; (3) 2,169 health workers received training in 2013 for a total of 8,602 trained since 2010; and (4) the workforce of trained health providers increased 9.3% in 2013 and a total of 29% since 2010. As a result, Burmese communities, including refugees, internally displaced people, and migrants have better access to basic services, such as food, shelter, and health care. Through training and technical support, over 60 civil society organizations improved their ability to access, research, document, and disseminate information on environment and development issues, human rights, and women's rights. The work of these organizations contributes to greater public awareness and access to information. In 2013, the government approved the registration of five media partners enabling them to publish and distribute newspapers in their respective states. Media partners also worked to raise awareness and contribute to national unity by organizing the first ever ethnic media conference in Yangon, at which government officials, Yangon-based journalists, civil society and ethnic political parties participated. Organizations supported by this project are contributing to policy development processes at the national level in Burma. Representatives from two program partners were selected to participate on a national steering committee that work with the government to improve openness and accountable management of revenues from natural resources Project-type interventions Bilateral Aid grant excluding debt reorganisation Global Affairs Canada OGM Indo-Pacific Pre-APP Youth Issues Children's issues Environmental sustainability (cross-cutting) Participatory development and good governance Gender equality 2878363.00 3015316.00 3233966.00 3309648.00 3557707.00 34.52813 69.17233 33.72148 73.04329 38.53575 68.77905 6.93194 79.84778 27.46609 89.64191 4.1748 73.50888 27.70169 85.3206 41.26465 69.21627 51.1801 71.44598 42.87 74.59 21.0245 105.84117 37.95 58.38333 -6.21462 106.84513 -8.55861 125.57361 17.96667 102.6 14.6042 120.9822 11.56245 104.91601 39.03385 125.75432 47.90771 106.88324 19.745 96.12972 28.63576 77.22445 13.75398 100.50144 3.1412 101.68653 21.43973 92.0955 25.03889 102.71833 2010200189 Inter Pares 15746269.48 1705012.00 280400.00 421059.00 466958.00 1000000.00 8571.00 496906.00 371104.00 640741.00 272964.00 1102499.55 596277.00 187550.00 554963.00 1821386.00 739217.00 293303.00 574418.00 1735918.00 569620.00 376552.00 565881.00 685039.00 100000.45
