The successful planning and implementation of the census activities, followed by the timely release of the provisional results in August 2014 and now the main results in May 2015, is a clear testimony of the Government’s resolve to publish all information collected from respondents in accordance with the Population and Housing Census Law No. 19 of 2013. It is my hope that the main census results will be interpreted correctly and will effectively inform the planning and decision-making processes in our quest for national development. The census structures put in place, including the Central Census Commission, Census Committees and Offices at all administrative levels and the International Technical Advisory Board (ITAB), a group of 15 experts from different countries and institutions involved in censuses and statistics internationally, provided the requisite administrative and technical inputs for the implementation of the census.

Report Lingering Shadows Communal
LINGERING SHADOWS COMMUNAL TENSIONS IN WEST BAGO REGION January 2016 This document is published by the Center for Diversity and National Harmony with the support of the United Nations Peacebuilding Fund. Publisher : Center for Diversity and National Harmony No. 12, Shweli Street, Kamayut Township, Yangon. Cover Photo : Thiri Tin Design & Layout : Kaung Htet Zaw Offset : Publication Date : December 2015 © All rights reserved Acknowledgements: As Myanmar’s transition continues, an undercurrent of communal violence threatens the country’s progress. Sporadic outbreaks of violence since 2012 have cast a shadow over swathes of Myanmar, including the West Bago Re- gion, the focus of this report. In recognition of the challenge posed by this violence, the Center for Diversity and National Harmony (CDNH) was estab- lished to coordinate stakeholders working on interfaith and communal issues throughout Myanmar and to conduct research on complex national issues. As part of its mission to share knowledge and stimulate discussion, CDNH also organizes trainings, workshops and conferences on conflict prevention, rule of law, interfaith dialogues, social and political tolerance and civic education. The Early Warning and Early Response (EWER) Program of CDNH was established in an attempt to provide timely collection and analysis of infor- mation in order to mitigate the risk of violence. As part of this effort, the EWER team undertook an in-depth analysis of the West Bago Region in order to understand the root causes of 2013’s communal violence from an EWER perspective. This report provides an analysis of the past designed to inform future efforts at conflict prevention in West Bago and elsewhere.
