In the post-independence period, comprehensive population and housing censuses were only successfully undertaken in 1973, 1983 and most recently in April 2014. Censuses are an important source of benchmark information on the characteristics of the population and households in every country. One unique feature of a census is its ability to provide information down to the lowest administrative level. Such information is vital for planning and evidence based decision-making at every level. Additional data uses include allocation of national resources; the review of administrative boundaries; the positioning of social infrastructures, drawing national development plans, service provision and developing social infrastructure, and for humanitarian preparedness and response. The results of the 2014 Census have been published so far in a number of volumes. The first was the Provisional Results released in August 2014. The Census Main Results were launched in May 2015. These included The Union Report, Highlights of the Main Results, and reports of each of the 15 States and Regions. The reports on Occupation and Industry and Religion were launched in March 2016 and July 2016, respectively. All the publications are available online at http://www.dop.gov.mm/ and http:// myanmar. unfpa.org/node/15104. The current set of the 2014 Census publications comprise township and sub-township reports. Their preparation involved collaborative efforts of the Department of Population and UNFPA. This report contains selected demographic and socio-economic characteristics of Yesagyo Township in Magway Region. The information included in this report is the situation of 2014 March 29, Census night. Township level information is very important. However, the level of confidence of township estimates is not the same as Union level information. Some of the townships have relatively

    SECOND NATIONAL REPORT ON UNCCD IMPLEMENTATION OF THE UNION OF MYANMAR ( APRIL 2002 ) Contents Page 1. Executive Summary 1 2. Background 3 3. The Strategies and Priorities Established within the Framework of 7 Sustainable Economic Development Plans 4. Institutional Measures Taken to Implement the Convention 9 5. Measures Taken or Planned to Combat Desertification 14 6. Consultative Process in Support of National Action Programme 52 with Interested Entities 7. Financial Allocation from the National Budgets 56 8. Monitoring and Evaluation 58 1. Executive Summary 1.1 The main purpose of this report is to update on the situation in Myanmar with regard to measures taken for the implementation of the UNCCD at the national level since its submission of the first national report in August 2000. 1.2 Myanmar acceded to the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD) in January 1997. Even before Myanmar’s accession to UNCCD, measures relating to combating desertification have been taken at the local and national levels. In 1994, the Ministry of Forestry (MOF) launched a 3-year "Greening Project for the Nine Critical Districts" of Sagaing, Magway and Mandalay Divisions in the Dry Zone. This was later extended to 13 districts with the creation of new department, the Dry Zone Greening Department (DZGD) in 1997. 1.3 The Government has stepped up its efforts on preventing land degradation and combating desertification in recent years. The most significant effort is the rural area development programme envisaged in the current Third Short-Term Five-Year Plan (2001-2002 to 2005-2006). The rural development programme has laid down 5 main activities.

  • Food Security Update - April 2014 Early Warning and Situation Reports
    Food Security Update - April 2014 Early Warning and Situation Reports Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec Purpose and Interpretation: Food Security Updates (FSUs) have two key components; 1) an Early Warning (EW) section and 2) a Situation Report (SitRep) from main States and Regions. The EW section outlines the key events occurring throughout Myanmar that are currently impacting the food security situation. By highlighting these events, it is possible to identify townships where food security status is likely to deteriorate in the short term, facilitating decision-making and response. Methodologically, WFP classifies the severity of shocks as Low, Moderate or High, depending on the likelihood that a shock is significant enough to result in deteriorations in key food security indicators as defined by the Food Security Information Network (FSIN). Indicator scores are then summed to determine a shock severity score. This methodology is summa- rized below. The SitRep, by contrast, provides general information on a monthly basis about the food security situation in key Regions and States in Myanmar. SitReps sum- marize the evolving food security situation and help provide context to more in-depth FSIN periodic monitoring rounds. Source of information: Information included in Food Security Updates (FSUs) comes from a variety of sources, including observations from field staff, information from assessment activities, community reports or requests for assistance, government requests for action and information from media outlets. Monthly Updates can be accessed online at http://www.fsinmyanmar.net.

  • 1 Food Security Profile Dry Zone – Magway Division WFP Project Area
    Food Security Profile Dry Zone – Magway Division WFP project area November 2008 This Report summarizes the findings of the Food Security Profiling assessment carried out across the Dry Zone, especially in Magway Division in August 2008. This is the first time a Food Security Profiling exercises has been conducted in the Dry Zone by the WFP and its Cooperating Partners, including OISCA, TDH, REAM, ADRA, Partners and World Vision and the line department for Dryzone Department of Development Affairs. This profile attempts to present a snapshot of household food security in the Dry Zone; 463 households in 59 villages under WFP project area of 6 townships: Pakokku, Pauk, Yesagyo, Natmauk, Chauk & Yenanchaung were covered under this assessment. It should be noted that the sample size has statistical limitations. However care was taken to ensure that the geographic coverage of the sample was considerable. The Dry Zone area is one of the more critical areas in the Union where the fragile ecosystem (a result of natural and human behaviour) has had adverse effects on household food security. Magway Division includes a vast semi-arid lowland surrounded by Mandalay Division the East and the Rahine Yoma and Chin hills on the West, Bago Division on the South and Sagaing Division in the north. The region also includes two major rivers, Ayeyarwady and Chindwin that flow through the Dry Zone from North to South towards the Delta. Average annual rainfall is low (500 to 1000 mm) compared to 5000 mm in other parts of the country. From methodological/analytical perspective, the sampling was randomly selected THE UNITED and data collection tools used included the Household & the Key Informant NATIONS WORLD FOOD Questionnaire.
