The project intends to target vulnerable and low-income townships in three climate vulnerable Regions/States of Myanmar: mountainous Hakha township, the delta Labutta township and the dry zone Pakkoku township. As noted within detailed Vulnerability to Climate Change Assessments, there is an urgent need to build resilience to climate change in these townships where the lives and welfare of thousands of people are at risk. The effects of climate change on the society, economy, infrastructure, and environment within these localities will greatly affect liveability, with increased risk of disasters occurring in the future. If action is not taken, particularly actions targeting most vulnerable groups such as women, children, and disabled, people will see their vulnerability exacerbated. The cost effectiveness of the proposed project scope is demonstrated by the economical co-benefits it will generate for highly vulnerable communities residing within the three targeted townships The outcomes of the proposed project will be: a) ECD continuously maintaining resources for water related, extreme event management and climate resilient practices in Myanmar; b) increased climate resilience of exposed populations in the mountainous, delta and dry zone climate vulnerable areas of Myanmar; and c) increased capacities at the national and local levels, supported by innovative data and information services.
