CA-3-P012510001 2026-07-10T06:32:42 March 2023 – 2 years after the military takeover, a complex combination of vulnerability to armed conflict, inter-communal tension, protracted displacement, and food insecurity characterizes the humanitarian situation in Myanmar. An estimated 17.6 million crisis-affected people require humanitarian assistance this year, including more than 1.3 million people 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, sexual and reproductive health rights (SRHR) and protection services, for internally displaced people (IDPs) and host communities in central Rakhine State, Myanmar. Project activities include: (1) distributing WASH and dignity kits; (2) re-constructing longhouses in a safer, more dignified and gender-responsive manner; (3) providing training on leadership and rights-based empowerment to women, adolescent girls and girls; and (4) conducting awareness-raising sessions on sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) and gender-based violence.
