Myanmar Humanitarian Fund 2018 – Second Standard Allocation MHF Allocation Strategy Paper | 1 Allocation Strategy Paper Myanmar Humanitarian Fund 2018 – Second Standard Allocation Submission Deadline: Sunday, 25 November 2018 (23:59 Yangon time) I. ALLOCATION OVERVIEW A) Introduction / Humanitarian situation The Myanmar Humanitarian Fund (MHF) is an OCHA‐managed country‐based pooled fund (CBPF) led by the Humanitarian Coordinator to provide emergency response to urgent needs of people affected by natural disasters or conflict. Since 2007, the MHF has mobilized $45.4 million, providing life‐saving assistance to 1.8 million people through 122 projects.1 A total of US$5 million will be made available from the MHF under this Second Standard Allocation for 2018, which will target humanitarian activities in Kachin, Shan, Rakhine and Chin States. As per analysis conducted, 62 per cent ($3.1 million) of the expected allocation will target activities in Kachin and Shan states, while 33 per cent ($1.65 million) will focus on activities in Rakhine State and 5 per cent ($250,000) in Paletwa Township, in Chin State. Protracted crises in Kachin, Shan and Rakhine continue to bring suffering to many thousands of people in Myanmar, who are affected by displacement and serious protection issues. In the northern part of the country (Kachin and Shan states), civilians continue to bear the brunt of the conflict, with fighting often taking place in or near to civilian areas. Many people in Kachin and Shan have been displaced multiple times. The conflict has escalated since the beginning of the 2018 and about 28,000 civilians have fled conflict and been temporarily displaced since January 2018. In some areas, fighting broke out in or in close proximity to civilian areas, including villages and displacement camps. In other areas, particularly in Shan, temporary displacement was followed by return to areas of origin, which presents challenges in humanitarian planning, response, and monitoring of the protection risks faced by returnees. In Rakhine State, the situation remains very difficult for the nearly 600,000 Rohingya remaining in both central and northern Rakhine, after the exodus of more than 725,000 Rohingya into Bangladesh since August 2017. They continue to face serious hardships and are in need of humanitarian assistance due to displacement, restrictions on their freedom of movement, limited access to essential services, and other deprivations (this includes all those still in Rakhine, including displaced people in camps). More than 128,000 Muslims, the vast majority of whom are stateless Rohingya, remain confined in camps after the episodes of inter‐communal violence which occurred in 2012. They are living in deplorable conditions as a result of movement restrictions, lack of adequate access to healthcare, education and livelihoods, over‐crowded‐shelters, and other challenges. In Chin State, armed clashes between the Tatmadaw and Arakan Army since November 2017 have caused multiple displacement. According to the operation partners in place, about 2,600 people remain displaced in Paletwa Township. B) Humanitarian Response Plan (HRP) This Second MHF Standard Allocation in 2018 aims at covering critical funding gaps in alignment with the 2018 Interim HRP for Myanmar and its strategic objectives, particularly meeting needs of displaced people and 1 More information is available at the CBPF Business Intelligence website: https://gms.unocha.org/bi Myanmar Humanitarian Fund (MHF) http://www.unocha.org/myanmar/about-mhf MHF Allocation Strategy Paper | 2 supporting efforts to achieve durable solutions; ensuring that vulnerable crisis‐affected people have access to essential services and livelihoods opportunities; and ensuring the protection of civilians; all of them through the strengthening national capacities and the resilience of communities. Considering the 2018 Interim HRP and the coming 2019 HRP, the funding already allocated by donors and the real‐ time analysis of the humanitarian situation, this Standard Allocation will prioritize humanitarian activities in Kachin, Shan and Rakhine states, with focus on key humanitarian sectors, particularly shelter and non‐food items (NFIs); water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH); and health. Funding will be also extended to other critical humanitarian interventions in food security and protection. Some specific activities in education and nutrition will be also covered. In the case of Chin State, a multi‐sectoral approach is required to respond to the most basic needs of the displaced population and the host communities. In Kachin and Shan States, priority activities are concentrated in shelter and NFIs, but also supporting key priorities in WASH, food security, health and protection. Funding gaps in education and nutrition are also huge, and specific funding envelopes will be considered in these two sectors. Within these envelopes, humanitarian rapid response mechanisms (RRM) to sudden onset crises in Kachin and Shan states will be also listed as high priority, to cover immediate needs for relief assistance in relation to new displacements due to the increasing fighting or related to natural disasters. In Rakhine State, priority activities are related to health, WASH, food security and nutrition. However, specific envelopes will be also considered for protection, education and shelter considering the huge funding gaps for some key activities in those sectors. A part of these priority activities are related to emergency interventions in some displacement sites in order to provide emergency repairs of shelters, temporary learning spaces and WASH infrastructures, as well as basic health and protection services, as defined in the Emergency Repairs and Activities Plan developed by HCT partners. In Chin State, the intervention will consider a multi‐sectoral approach including emergency activities for the displaced people but also for the surrounding host communities. II. ALLOCATION STRATEGY A) Purpose of the Allocation Strategy and linkages to the HRP This Second Standard Allocation in 2018 prioritizes projects that are in line with the MHF operating principles,2 ensuring the application of minimum humanitarian standards (depending on the local context), particularly in displacement sites, and preventing a worsening of the situation and increased vulnerability. The allocation follows the overarching goal of the 2018 Interim HRP for Myanmar to ensure that the lives, dignity, well‐being and rights of persons affected by conflict, natural disasters and other emergencies are protected.3 The MHF aims at achieving three main objectives through this allocation: To fill underfunded priority activities in protracted crisis in Kachin and Shan States. To address urgent needs of internally displaced people and other vulnerable people in Rakhine State. To address basic needs of displaced people and host communities in Paletwa Township, Chin State. This allocation strategy paper is the result of consultations with stakeholders in October; including national and international NGOs, UN agencies, donors, the Inter‐Cluster Coordination Group (ICCG) and the MHF Advisory Board. Consultations at sub‐national level have been also conducted, with the involvement of partners, clusters and 2 MHF Operational Manual (July 2018): http://www.unocha.org/myanmar/governance‐policy‐and‐guidance 3 See full document at: https://reliefweb.int/report/myanmar/2018‐interim‐humanitarian‐response‐plan‐myanmar Myanmar Humanitarian Fund (MHF) http://www.unocha.org/myanmar/about-mhf MHF Allocation Strategy Paper | 3 sectors in Kachin, Shan and Rakhine states within the existing coordination mechanisms. In addition, in‐depth analysis has been conducted on the funding levels recorded by the Financial Tracking Service (FTS) and other additional information. After feedback provided by the MHF Advisory Board (AB) on 8 November 2018, the allocation strategy paper has been endorsed by the HC on 9 November 2018. Throughout 2018, the MHF has received $14.3 million in contributions from ten donors4, including a pledge of $1.14 million. The MHF has already allocated $7.8 million through two allocations, supporting 21 projects and targeting 455,000 persons, of which 52% are women and girls, and 44%, children and adolescents under 18. Additional contributions from other donors are expected in the coming months.

All the submitted project proposals will be strategically assessed by the MHF Review Committee using a general score card and sector‐specific criteria. For project proposals related to activities in Kachin and Shan states, the Review Committee will observe all the questions related to the coverage of the most underfunded activities, as per sector prioritization. Special attention will be paid to interventions addressing the most urgent needs of those people who have been newly displaced in the past months. According to the last Shelter/NFIs/CCCM

  • 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.

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.
