  • Rakhine State Needs Assessment September 2015
    Rakhine State Needs Assessment September 2015 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. 11, Shweli Street, Kamayut Township, Yangon. Offset : Public ation Date : September 2015 © All rights reserved. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Rakhine State, one of the poorest regions in Myanmar, has been plagued by communal problems since the turn of the 20th century which, coupled with protracted underdevelopment, have kept residents in a state of dire need. This regrettable situation was compounded from 2012 to 2014, when violent communal riots between members of the Muslim and Rakhine communities erupted in various parts of the state. Since the middle of 2012, the Myanmar government, international organisations and non-governmen- tal organisations (NGOs) have been involved in providing humanitarian assistance to internally dis- placed and conflict-affected persons, undertaking development projects and conflict prevention activ- ities. Despite these efforts, tensions between the two communities remain a source of great concern, and many in the international community continue to view the Rakhine issue as the biggest stumbling block in Myanmar’s reform process. The persistence of communal tensions signaled a need to address one of the root causes of conflict: crushing poverty. However, even as various stakeholders have attempted to restore normalcy in the state, they have done so without a comprehensive needs assessment to guide them. In an attempt to fill this gap, the Center for Diversity and National Harmony (CDNH) undertook the task of developing a source of baseline information on Rakhine State, which all stakeholders can draw on when providing humanitarian and development assistance as well as when working on conflict prevention in the state.

  • Rakhine Operational Brief WFP Myanmar
    Rakhine Operational Brief WFP Myanmar OVERVIEW Rakhine State is located in the western part of Myanmar, bordering with Chin State in the north, Magway, Bago and Ayeyarwaddy Regions in the east, Bay of Bengal to the west and Chittagong Division of Bangladesh to the northwest. It is one of the most remote and second poorest state in Myanmar, geographically separated from the rest of the country by mountains. The estimated population of Rakhine State is 3.2 million. Chronic poverty and high vulnerability to shocks are widespread throughout the State. Acute malnutrition remains a concern in Rakhine. The food security situation is particularly critical in Buthidaung and Maungdaw townships with 15.1 percent and 19 percent prevalence of global acute malnutrition (GAM) among children 6-59 months respectively. Meanwhile the prevalence of severe acute malnutrition (SAM) is 2 percent and 3.9 percent - above WHO critical emergency thresholds. The prevalence of GAM in Sittwe rural and urban IDP camps is 8.6 percent and 8.5 percent whereas the SAM prevalence is 1.3 percent and 0.6 percent. The existing malnutrition has been exacerbated by the 2015 nationwide floods as a Multi-sector Initial Rapid Assessment (MIRA) reported that 22 percent of assessed villages in Rakhine having nutrition problems with feeding children under 2. Moreover, WFP and FAO’s joint Crops and Food Security Assessment Mission in December 2015 predicted the likelihood of severe food shortage particularly in hardest hit areas of Rakhine. WFP is the main humanitarian organization providing uninterrupted food assistance in Rakhine. Its first PARTNERSHIPS operation in Myanmar commenced in 1978 in northern Rakhine, following the return of 200,000 refugees from Government Counterpart Bangladesh.

  • PPWG Assessment – Burma/Myanmar Conflict Prepared for the United States Atrocity Early Warning Task Force
    PPWG Assessment – Burma/Myanmar Conflict Prepared for the United States Atrocity Early Warning Task Force Conflict Background The government of Myanmar is split between the military-controlled ministries run by the Tatmadaw, who derive extensive power from political leverage, military force, and economic interests, and the civilian government currently led by the National League for Democracy (NLD), which struggles to exert influence over the military. Since 2015, Tatmadaw clashes with ethnic armed organizations (EAOs) and non-state armed actors created mass instability in Kachin, Shan, Chin, Karen, Kayin, and Rakhine states. Deeply rooted ethnic, religious, and social demarcations in Myanmar’s society layer the country with division. Under the military regime and continuing to this day, there have been devastating and widespread human rights abuses against minority populations in Myanmar. The acute violence against Rohingya people in Rakhine state in August and September 2017 were “unprecedented in terms of volume and speed” displacing more than 700,000 Rohingya people into neighboring Bangladesh. Current Situational Assessment In the months following the 2017 surge in violence against Rohingya, similar operations by the Tatmadaw in Shan, Kachin, Karen, Rakhine, and others have followed. As mentioned in previous assessments, we warned that violence would increase in conflict-affected areas ahead of the November elections. This has proven true. Violence has steadily escalated in Rakhine state. In late June, the Tatmadaw declared they
