ProjectProgramme / project reportMyanmar Community Livelihood Assistance Project : Boosting Food Production Capacity to Address Food Security and Resilient Livelihoods in Crisis-Affected Regions/States of Myanmar
Environmental and Social Management Framework
2024Also available in:
The World Bank and FAO are collaborating on the Myanmar Community Livelihood Assistance Project to enhance access to emergency aid, basic services, and livelihood opportunities for vulnerable communities. FAO focuses on rehabilitating agriculture by offering technical, material, and financial support to farmers in conflict-affected areas. The project will provide agricultural inputs, training, and cash transfers to boost crop, livestock, and fisheries productivity across 225 villages in six regions of Myanmar. An Environmental and Social Management Framework (ESMF) has been established to address risks such as waste, water contamination, and the exclusion of vulnerable groups. Mitigation measures align with World Bank, FAO, and Myanmar’s regulations and include guidelines on agricultural practices, labor, land use, and community health. A Stakeholder Engagement Plan and Grievance Redress Mechanism are also part of the framework. -

Project concept note
2024Also available in:
No results found.This project proposes a conflict-sensitive, integrated programme aimed at building resilience in Myanmar’s most affected and vulnerable communities facing multiple shocks, including conflict, climate risks, and economic crises. The programme will focus on Chin, Kayah, Kayin, Rakhine, and Sagaing states, where food security and agricultural livelihoods are most severely impacted. Grounded in participatory context analysis, interventions will be designed to address the specific vulnerabilities and needs of displaced, returnee, and host populations. FAO’s efforts will include rehabilitating the agricultural sector through both short- and long-term assistance, utilizing a Cash Plus modality that combines cash transfers with agricultural inputs and technical support. By promoting community-based recovery, disaster risk management, and sustainable agricultural practices, the programme seeks to reduce dependency on humanitarian aid and foster long-term development and peace. Through this integrated approach across the Humanitarian-Development-Peace Nexus, FAO aims to improve food security, enhance social cohesion, and increase resilience to multiple shocks, ultimately contributing to the recovery and stability of conflict-affected communities. -
