SRHR, HIV and Nutrition Support in Bhamo District, Kachin State Sep 27, 2021, 8:07:05 AM Call for Expression of Interest SRHR, HIV and Nutrition Support in Bhamo District, Kachin State CEF/MMR/2021/002 1 Timeline Posted Jan 29, 2021 Clarification Request Deadline Feb 4, 2021 Application Deadline Feb 7, 2021 Notification of Results Feb 14, 2021 Start Date Mar 1, 2021 End Date Feb 28, 2022 2 Locations A Myanmar a Kachin State 3 Sector(s) and area(s) of specialization A Health a HIV/AIDS B Nutrition a Infant and young child feeding b Malnutrition prevention and treatment c Micronutrients 4 Issuing Agency UNICEF 5 Project Background Myanmar still has one of the highest mortality rates for children under the age of five in the ASEAN region. According to the Myanmar Demographic and Health Survey (MDHS-2015-2016), the mortality rate for under-fives was 50 deaths per 1,000 live births, most of them died within the first month of life. Many children in Myanmar struggle to access adequate nutrition, only 16 per cent of young children received a minimum acceptable. The rate of stunting among children under 5 has dropped but remains nearly one out of four children in Kachin are stunted (Ref: Myanmar Micronutrient Food Consumption Survey; MMFCS-2017-2018). Maternal undernutrition poses serious risks for both mother and child, including low birth weight for the newborn child and susceptibility to disease. Geographical disparities across states, region and townships are high as well as urban and rural differences. Nearly half (45%) of pregnant women in Kachin suffered anemia while national average is 40% and one in three (33%) of children 6-59 months in Kachin are anemic (Ref: MMFCS-2017-2018). Moreover, Kachin is one of the few states/regions that has a very high HIV prevalence in Myanmar. According to HSS data (2016), the HIV prevalence among pregnant women who came for ANC in Bhamo District was 1.5% which was well above the benchmark (1%). Due to ongoing conflict within the Kachin State, over 40,985 people are internally displaced (IDP) in Bhamo District who are dependent on camp clinics or Laiza Public Hospital for health care. However, these camp clinics do not offer testing, care and treatment services for people living with HIV. Therefore, the HIV positive pregnant mothers who are identified have very limited access to ART. Only those resided in camps located near the hospitals can easily seek out for ART, while those resided far away have constraints in accessing services. The COVID-19 pandemic has posed further challenges for vulnerable populations including, but not limited to, lost labor opportunities and income, incurred expenses and more expensive nutritionally adequate diets. Due to the impact of COVID-19 in the socio economic and health care, increased malnutrition caseload is anticipated, especially among already vulnerable persons with limited access to basic services. 6 Expected Results The partnership aims to respond to immediate nutritional needs in IDP camps of Bhamo District, Kachin State for a period of 12 months. The package will include Risk Communication and Community Engagement (RCCE) activities of COVID-19 on Health and Nutrition, micronutrient supplementation to pregnant and lactating women and children under five, strengthen community mobilization for screening of children under five for malnutrition, and referral for treatment if requires, IYCF counselling and messaging on prevention and access to services including health education on health, nutrition and hygiene promotion. With this partnership, it can provide HIV related services like HIV testing in all IDP camps, travel support for ART referral services in camps that are not easily accessible to treatment centers, and follow-up care for all pregnant women living with HIV and their exposed children from both Government Controlled Areas (GCA) and Non-Government Controlled Areas (NGCA) of Bhamo District. Moreover, this partnership can also increase the SRHR knowledge and HIV knowledge among adolescents in IDP camps. 7 Indicative Budget - 8 Other Information Project locations (Community level) -Bhamo District, Kachin State Sectors and areas of specialization- Nutrition - IYCF, malnutrition prevention and treatment, micronutrients HIV- HIV counselling & testing, referral support for receiving the treatment and early infant diagnosis 9 Selection Criteria Name Description Weight Partners are expected to explain their experience in working with UN organizations Experience working with UN and knowledge and understanding of UN-specific processes.

  • A Kachin Case Study
    MUSEUMS, DIASPORA COMMUNITIES AND DIASPORIC CULTURES A KACHIN CASE STUDY HELEN MEARS PHD 2019 0 Abstract This thesis adds to the growing body of literature on museums and source communities through addressing a hitherto under-examined area of activity: the interactions between museums and diaspora communities. It does so through a focus on the cultural practices and museum engagements of the Kachin community from northern Myanmar. The shift in museum practice prompted by increased interaction with source communities from the 1980s onwards has led to fundamental changes in museum policy. Indeed, this shift has been described as “one of the most important developments in the history of museums” (Peers and Brown, 2003, p.1). However, it was a shift informed by the interests and perspectives of an ethnocentric museology, and, for these reasons, analysis of its symptoms has remained largely focussed on the museum institution rather than the communities which historically contributed to these institutions’ collections. Moreover, it was a shift which did not fully take account of the increasingly mobile and transnational nature of these communities. This thesis, researched and written by a museum curator, was initiated by the longstanding and active engagement of Kachin people with historical materials in the collections of Brighton Museum & Art Gallery. In closely attending to the cultural interests and habits of overseas Kachin communities, rather than those of the Museum, the thesis responds to Christina Kreps’ call to researchers to “liberate our thinking from Eurocentric notions of what constitutes the museum and museological behaviour” (2003, p.x). Through interviews with individual members of three overseas Kachin communities and the examination of a range of Kachin-related cultural productions, it demonstrates the extent to which Kachin people, like museums, are highly engaged in heritage and cultural preservation, albeit in ways which are distinctive to normative museum practices of collecting, display and interpretation.

  • Kachin State for the May 2021 3W July 2021
    Myanmar Information Management Unit Overview of Kachin State for the May 2021 3W July 2021 The MIMU 3W gathers inputs from participating humanitarian and development agencies on Who is doing What, Where, across Myanmar. It is normally conducted every 6 months and provides information on agencies’ activities at various levels (village/village tract/township, and IDP camps). Given the changing situation, there has been a 9 month gap since the last 3W round documenting agencies activities as of August 28th 2020. In total, 159 agencies participated in the May 2021 3W, providing information on their humanitarian and development activities across 22 sectors and 157 sub-sectors as defined by technical/sector working groups. 3W reporting is quite comprehensive for projects of INGO, UN and Red Cross agencies, but there is under-reporting of activities for local NGOs and CBOs, since not all are participating. This indicates 54 less agencies reporting than in the last MIMU 3W in August 2020, possibly due to the pressures of the COVID pandemic and/or uncertainty re the situation for agencies’ activities countrywide. Note that Agencies must report to a sufficiently detailed level (village or camp level) for their work to be reflected fully in the MIMU 3W products. This Overview describes projects under implementation in Kachin as of May 31, 2021. Further information on planned and recently completed projects is available from the 3W dataset, which can be requested by 3W Partners.

  • Research Article WILDMEN in MYANMAR
    The RELICT HOMINOID INQUIRY 4:53-66 (2015) Research Article WILDMEN IN MYANMAR: A COMPENDIUM OF PUBLISHED ACCOUNTS AND REVIEW OF THE EVIDENCE Steven G. Platt1, Thomas R. Rainwater2* 1 Wildlife Conservation Society-Myanmar Program, Office Block C-1, Aye Yeik Mon 1st Street, Hlaing Township, Yangon, Myanmar 2 Baruch Institute of Coastal Ecology and Forest Science, Clemson University, P.O. Box 596, Georgetown, SC 29442, USA ABSTRACT. In contrast to other countries in Asia, little is known concerning the possible occurrence of undescribed Hominoidea (i.e., wildmen) in Myanmar (Burma). We here present six accounts from Myanmar describing wildmen or their sign published between 1910 and 1972; three of these reports antedate popularization of wildmen (e.g., yeti and sasquatch) in the global media. Most reports emanate from mountainous regions of northern Myanmar (primarily Kachin State) where wildmen appear to inhabit montane forests. Wildman tracks are described as superficially similar to human (Homo sapiens) footprints, and about the same size to almost twice the size of human tracks. Presumptive pressure ridges were described in one set of wildman tracks. Accounts suggest wildmen are bipedal, 120-245 cm in height, and covered in longish pale to orange-red hair with a head-neck ruff. Wildmen are said to utter distinctive vocalizations, emit strong odors, and sometimes behave aggressively towards humans. Published accounts of wildmen in Myanmar are largely based on narratives provided by indigenous informants. We found nothing to indicate informants were attempting to beguile investigators, and consider it unlikely that wildmen might be confused with other large mammals native to the region.
