CAREs water and sanitation projects are located in some of the most inaccessible and remote parts of the country. Following Cyclone Nargis in May 2008, CARE initiated water and sanitation projectssimilar to those carried out in other parts of Myanmar, in addition to pond and well rehabilitation and pond and well excavation. As with all activities, CARE provides technical training to CARE communities to ensure sustainability of all activities. Shelter and Disaster Risk Reduction CARE distributed emergency shelter materials, including toolkits, bamboo, rope and tarpaulins, in the immediate aftermath of Cyclone Nargis. CARE was the rst agency to provide early recovery materials, such as Nipa palm and wood, which were timely, locally appropriate and ensured protection ahead of the 2009 monsoon. Currently, CARE is implementing a shelter project for landless and vulnerable households in the Delta region, and continues tosupport communities to develop disaster action plans and increase preparedness against future natural disasters.

A Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed with the MRCS on the 6th of March, 2007 (validated by the Minister of Health, the Attorney General, and the Minister of Foreign Affairs) The FRC delegation was opened in July of 2007 and worked in collaboration with the MRCS to develop activities in Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) in the region of Ayeryarwady (Delta), zone which had been affected by the Tsunami. The DRR programme was temporarily suspended after Cyclone Nargis hit Myanmar in May 2008, as the FRC teams were entirely dedicated to the emergency response. After some emergency / relief interventions, in the Delta, FRC worked closely with the MRCS to establish early recovery projects. Watsan/ HP, Livelihoods, and Health projects were then implemented in the township of Mawlamyinegyun from July of 2008 to April of 2010. In November 2008, after the initial response to Cyclone Nargis, the development of the DRR programme was restarted. It was ofcially launched back in January of 2009 with a long term goal to establish a DRR unit within the MRCS and to extend the geographical coverage to all the coastal regions (Ayeyarwady, Rakhine, Yangon, Bago, Mon, and Taninyatharyi).

: Tapan Kumar Barman : Kim Michelle : 2004 : National (50), International (2) : : Livelihood, Food Security, Health, Emergencies : In 2004 HelpAge Korea initiated a volunteer-based home care pilot project
for older people in Myanamar based on the ROK-ASEAN model with local partner National YMCA. Subsequently, HelpAge International began promoting the role of local partners and community-based groups of older people, referred to as Self Help Groups, Older Peoples Associations, or Older Peoples Groups. Commencing in 2009 HelpAge International, with support from HelpAge Korea (HAK), piloted an Older People Self-Help Group (OPSHG) approach to reducing poverty in Myanmar. The EU supported project is being implemented in 17 villages in the Ayerawaddy Delta and 3 villages in Pyin Oo Lwin township in Mandalay Division. The results of these projects have shown clearly that OPSHGs can become a driving force for socio-economic development in their communities, generating stronger mutual support among older people by reducing their isolation and creating a social support network that can facilitate community development involving different age groups within their communities and strengthening links with local authorities. The OPSHG model has been positively appraised by the Ministry of Social Welfare (MSW) in October 2011 and MSW is currently considering replication of OPSHG to other areas of the country. HelpAge has successfully implemented a LIFT-funded (Delta) livelihood recovery project in 25 villages in Kyailat using an inclusive VDC approach. This model is currently being replicated to 30 villages in Ayartaw and Mahlaing Townships with funding from LIFT. HelpAge in Myanmar has been working toward sensitizing the government for making it more age-friendly through a variety of interventions such as capacity building, ownership approaches and partnerships. One of the highlights of our policy work with the government here in the drafting the national plan of action on ageing. HelpAge has also developed a number of strategies to take its policy work with the government forward. Vision/Mission : Our vision is a world in which all older people fulll their potential to lead
dignied, active, healthy and secure lives. We work with our partners to ensure that people everywhere understand how much older people contribute to society and that they must enjoy their right to healthcare, social services and economic and physical security

: Mr.Peeter Saarna (President) :: December 2002 : National (170), International (3) : Meeting, Seminars, Scholarship program : The Inter- religous and International Federation for World Peace (IIFWP)
is dedicated to the promotion of world peace through education programs, workshops, conferences, and publication.The IIFWP seeks encourage and support the efforts of World leaders from all disciplines and to build coalitions among a wide range of non-governmental. religious, cultural and educational istitutions in advancing solutions to pressing world problems, Of particular concern to the IIFWP are two serious and growing problems. The rst revolves aroung family instability and breakdown and the serious social, econimic, and culyural problems that family decline generates. The second concerns ethnic, racial and religious, and educational institutions work to gether, not only to reserve the decline of the family, but also to promote grater understanding and collaboration among diverse communities. As we stand at the dawn if the twenty-rst century and a new millennium, peoples of all nations, races and creeds share a common hope for a world peace, justica and prosperity. Where ad the past had been marked by war, conict, famine, poverty, and injustic we long for a future in which these tragic occurences can be eliminated. If the human aspiration for peace is truly to be achieved, it will require a great conuence if ideas, opportunity, fortune, hard-work, and most of all the willingness to allow the goal of peace to take precedence over those religion, and ideology, as well as the pursuit of economic or political self-interest to the deterimnet of others. The IIFWP promotes the following moral principles which are the foundation od its vision and its programs ; 1. live for the sake of other; 2. overcome the barriers, such as nationality, religion, race and political ideology that divide peoples; 3. practice true love in the family as the foundation for peace in the society, nation and world. The IIFWP is sponsoring a series of international Leadership Seminars around the world, promoting the IIFWP vision and development its chapter, and more importantly, appo intion leaders from all elds as AMBASSADORS for PEACE. Consistent with its mission to establish world peace the Inter-religious and International Federation for World Peace designates as Ambassador for Peace those Individuals whose lives . exemplify the idea of living for sake of others and who dedicate themselves to practices which promote the founding ideals of the IIFWP: universal moral values, strong family life, inter-religious cooperation, international
43
harmony, a responsible public media, and the establishment of a culture of peace. Transcending racial, national and religious barrers, the Ambassadors for Peace contr ibute to the fulllment of the hope of all ages, unied world of peace where in the spiritual and material dimensions of life are harmonized. Over the past fty years mankind had placed its trust in the United Nations to address local and international wars, and the world we live in today has reached a point where the United Nations as its currently exist cannot successfully address this enormous challenge. In the light of, not only the mission of the United Nations, but indeed in the very history and purpose of religion itself and the essential spiritual nature of humanity, the IIFWP maintains that any successful strategy for peace must take into account the substantial, spiritual dimensions of human identity, experience and action- Religion is simply too important to overlook With . a view to develop and eventually see a Council of Religious Leaders working within the UN, a proposition (A/58/L.13) dated Nov 10, 2003 was submitted for consideration by the UN General Assembly, by the Government of Philippines for the creation of a Religious Assembly to work in partnership with the UN General Assembly. This was done at the 58th General Assembly of the United Nations in 2003. IIFWP MYANMAR started monthly meetings in December 2002.IIFWP invites various religious leaders from all religions in Myanmar. We choose a topic for each month such as Family values, Loving your enemy,What is Islam? Participants make comments and discuss these issues.We try to understand other peoples opinions and values.

Main Program/Activities Far South Delta
Type of intervention Number of beneciaries
: Livelihoods : 3,200 households (15,000 people in 25 villages)
The Irrawady Delta is a relatively hostile natural environment, with limited opportunities for livelihood development. It suffered one of the largest natural disasters in world history in 2008 when cyclone Nargis killed approximately 140,000 people, thus fully exacerbating the pre-existing conditions of the area. Solidarits International has developed 17 projects in the past three years with either donors, and has recently completed our flagship project aiming at strengthening the livelihoods of resource-poor households in this remote area. Activities: Increasing 1,000 farmer households rice-self provisioning ability by at least one month Provision of 100 buffalos, tillage tool sets, power tillers, training on improved cultivation techniques, rat control campaign, setting up of demonstration plots, construction of 6 storm resistant storage facilities for paddy seeds Developing at least one supplementary source of food and income for 1,000 vulnerable households whose main livelihood was not farmin On-the-job training, workshops, start up kits, training on pig, duck raising as well as provision of piglets and ducklings, training on crab farming, support small-scale shery and employment of local boat builders and provision of sets of shing gear

Receiving immediate cash-earning opportunities for 1,200 vulnerable households for minimum 15 days Cash for work to build new ponds, rehabilitate village roads and support monsoon paddy cultivation Chin State Area of intervention Type of intervention Number of beneciaries : Kanpetlet Township : Food security and agriculture : 10,000 people
Chin State is one of the poorest and most isolated areas of Myanmar, and Kanpetlet Township is the most remote and poor of Chin States eight Townships.The population of Kanpetlet gets the majority of its income from slash-and-burn agriculture, still practice archery hunting, and have minimal external trade of any sort. They earn barely enough to survive with most families never having more than 5kg of rice in personal reserves. Since 2008, the Township has been massively infested by rats in a devastating natural phenomena which occurs every 48 years called the Mautam. This phenomena is related to the blossoming of a particular bamboo which attracts scores of rats -however this usually only lasts one season. Due to a plethora of natural and man-made reasons, this infestion has not slowed down for the past 4 years and has resulted in a crop, seed stock and food disaster leading to a food security crisis. SOLIDARITES INTERNATIONAL is responding with a complementary two-fold approach in these 58 villages, first providing food through WFP (donated by Canada), and then with an agriculture and rat control program funded by Frances CIAA assistance. Activities: Food distribution for 300 vulnerable households during lean period/hunger gap: Distribution of basic food rations during 3 months for the most affected households (In many cases, villagers walk up to 3 days to the nearest distribution points). Improvement of self food production for 1,600 households: Rice and corn seeds distribution, rat trap distribution, rehabilitation of roads in isolated villages to improve acces to food and markets. Rat Control kits and training for over 400 families Food Security monitoring and sharing of the infos with other humanitarian actors as SOLIDARITES INTERNATIONAL is the only INGO in the remote Township Rakhine State, Myebon Township Intervention area : Myebon Township Number of beneficiaries : 10,200 people Reconstruction and refurbishment of Shelters for Cyclone Giri affected communities. Cyclone Giri hit Rakhine State on October 22nd 2010 affecting 260,000 people. In January 2011, SOLIDARITES INTERNATIONAL led a joint assessment to determine that approximately 20.000 houses were destroyed and 31,000 damaged, primarily affecting Myebon and Kyauk Pyu Townships, for a total of 1/3 of the total households being affected. The situation appears even more alarming in this remote area, as the communities livelihoods were already traditionally fragile.
73
The main objective of this program is to support cyclone affected communities in the coastal areas to recover the means to shelter and protect themselves during the upcoming monsoon, while raising awareness and knowledge of shelter related Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR). Provision of 475 shelter retrotting packages to the most vulnerable households (materials and tools). Construction of 300 bamboo shelters Construction of 120 timber houses for the vulnerable families who couldnt otherwise rebuild themselves. Identication, training and provision of toolkits and construction materials to 20 carpenters identied in target villages, including self-retrotting by beneciaries with technical support from DRR skilled carpenters. Provision of 600 cash grants to provide families with capital to self repair their homes. Disaster resilient shelter construction awareness training (3 sessions per village for 8 villages) Type of intervention Number of beneciaries Intervention area : Livelihoods (Agriculture and Fisheries) : 4,000 households : Myebon Township
Cyclone Giri hit Rakhine State on 22 October 2010 with total damage affecting 260,000 people. In terms of food security, substantial destructions of paddy lands and sheries have caused lot of damages; especially because last Octobers harvest was wiped out due to the cyclone just as the harvest was ready to provide enough food for the year to come. The food-producing gap is therefore very important in this area. To assist the situation, Solidarites International is supporting livelihoods recovery of the marginal economies for one full seasonal cycle. Cash for work program - restructuring projects such as embankment repairs works -for 235 households so they receive nancial resources Distribution of rice seeds for farmers (through a voucher system), to be able to grow paddies by the next rainy season Distribution of nets and boats for fishery recover so they are able to resume their activities by August 2011 WASH - Social Water Management Number of beneciaries Intervention area : 1,400 people : Dry zone
The Dry Zone area is one of the more critical areas in the Union where the fragile ecosystem (a result of natural and human behavior) has had adverse effects on household food security. The government are underlining the need for INGOs and donors to focus on this area, and the rearby areas surrounding their new capital of Naypyidaw. Along with the problem of insufcient water for crop production, scarcity of water endangers the health and welfare of the population. Water resources in the villages cannot support the whole population during the dry season. The lack of safe water for both domestic use and livelihoods development is one of the most important factors behind seasonal migration.
74
The most common consequences are households travelling long distances during hours to fetch water, as well as the economic migrations outside of the area during the dry season. The main objective of this program is to support livelihoods in 2 townships in the Dry Zone throught sustainable exploitation and management of natural resources. Activities: At least 1,400 rural households increase or diversify their agricultural production without damaging their natural resources. Transfer of improved crops and practices to 90 farmers for soil and water conservation, development of 250 domestic rainwater collection systems, poultry re-stocking for 250 households, establishment of 2 brood stations to produce 1-month old chicks, very small scale irrigation and home gardening support to 250 households At least 1,000 landless and resource-poor households get new job opportunities and increased off-farm incomes Employment of 200 labourers to rehabilitate 4 community rainwater catchment facilities and build 6 community water supply facilities, setting up of 2 Thai Jar workshops for on the job training, Local communities are effectively trained and supported to better manage their natural resources in 30 villages Capacity building of 60 resource persons focusing on management skills and cross-cutting themes (e.g. gender, environment, water resources), development of community monitoring and evaluation mechanisms in 30 villages, establishment of interest groups to implement greening plans and preserve watersheds, support to 300 households for tree planting
