KACHIN AND SHAN NORTH
9 June marked four years since conflict
erupted again in Kachin and northern Shan.
After four years, over 100,000 IDPs continue
to need humanitarian assistance and wear
and tear means that many temporary IDP
shelters are in urgent need of repair and
maintenance. While fighting has subsided in
many parts of the Kokang Self-Administered
Zone, humanitarian access for international
organizations remains restricted.
In late June and during the month of July,
heavy rains caused floods in several parts of
the country, including Rakhine, Ayeyawady,
Kayin, Shan, Mandalay, Sagaing, Kachin,
Chin and Magway, affecting over 200,000
people. The Government led emergency
response operations, including the distribution
of relief items and provision of medical care to
flood affected townships. The Myanmar Red
Cross Society and local NGOs, as well as
international organizations also provided
assistance in some areas.
FLOODING
8 June marked three years since inter-commu-
nal violence broke out in Rakhine. Three years
on, some 130,000 people remain displaced.
Severe movement restrictions continue to
restrict access of IDPs to basic services
including health, education and livelihoods.
RAKHINE STATE
A series of focus group discussions were held
in May and June in 15 IDP camps in Rakhine
and 15 camps in Kachin with over 500
displaced people. The study showed that while
national and international organizations are
reaching people with assistance, there is room
for improvement in how aid workers engage
and share information with affected people.

Myanmar snapshot of humanitarian issues (31 july 2015)

Myanmar: Snapshot of Humanitarian Issues (31 July 2015) Creation date: 31 July 2015 Sources: RRD, KMSS, KBC, SCI, UNHCR, WFP, MIMU, UNOCHA, Feedback: ochamyanmar@un.org www.unocha.org www.reliefweb.int The boundaries and names shown and the designations used on this map do not imply official endorsement or acceptance by the United Nations.

Myitkyina Waingmaw Momauk Chipwi Sittwe $189M required KACHIN AND SHAN NORTH 9 June marked four years since conflict erupted again in Kachin and northern Shan. After four years, over 100,000 IDPs continue to need humanitarian assistance and wear and tear means that many temporary IDP shelters are in urgent need of repair and maintenance. While fighting has subsided in many parts of the Kokang Self-Administered Zone, humanitarian access for international organizations remains restricted. In late June and during the month of July, heavy rains caused floods in several parts of the country, including Rakhine, Ayeyawady, Kayin, Shan, Mandalay, Sagaing, Kachin, Chin and Magway, affecting over 200,000 people. The Government led emergency response operations, including the distribution of relief items and provision of medical care to flood affected townships. The Myanmar Red Cross Society and local NGOs, as well as international organizations also provided assistance in some areas. FLOODING 8 June marked three years since inter-commu- nal violence broke out in Rakhine. Three years on, some 130,000 people remain displaced. Severe movement restrictions continue to restrict access of IDPs to basic services including health, education and livelihoods. RAKHINE STATE A series of focus group discussions were held in May and June in 15 IDP camps in Rakhine and 15 camps in Kachin with over 500 displaced people. The study showed that while national and international organizations are reaching people with assistance, there is room for improvement in how aid workers engage and share information with affected people.
