    The current humanitarian situation in Myanmar represents protracted displacement, human- and natural-induced crises, statelessness, limited access to food, health and livelihood opportunities, limited humanitarian access, landmines and explosive remnants. In Rakhine State, the situation remains tense with inter-communal tensions reported in some areas, particularly affecting women and children. In Kachin and Shan states, the escalation of armed conflict induced new and secondary displacements. To rebuild agricultural livelihoods affected by human-induced crises and natural disasters, FAO requires USD 7.5 million to assist 143 000 people from January to December 2019.
