CA-3-P010247001 2026-07-10T06:32:42 March 2021 – A complex combination of vulnerability to armed conflict, inter-communal tension, protracted displacement, and food insecurity characterizes the humanitarian situation in Myanmar. An estimated one million crisis-affected people require humanitarian assistance this year, including more than 336,000 displaced people across the country. Humanitarian organizations operate in an increasingly complex environment, including as a result of the recent military coup. With GAC’s support, Canadian Lutheran World Relief and its local partner, Lutheran World Federation Myanmar, improve access to safe water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) facilities, non-food items and shelter for internally displaced people (IDPs) and host communities in central Rakhine State, Myanmar. This project also addresses protection and social cohesion issues. Project activities include: (1) installing community water filters; (2) distributing WASH and dignity kits; (3) re-constructing longhouses in a safer, more dignified and gender-responsive manner; (4) providing training on leadership and rights-based empowerment to women, adolescent girls and girls; and (5) conducting awareness-raising sessions on sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) and gender-based violence.
