UNFPA's Regional Response to address the Myanmar Crisis

This is a comprehensive plan developed by the UNFPA Asia-Pacific Regional Office to address the urgent needs of displaced women and girls from Myanmar, wherever they are, including refugees and displaced populations with diverse legal statuses in Bangladesh, India, Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand.

  • Youth empowerment: Comprehensive sexuality education and life-skills training provided to young people to foster youth leadership and build resilience.
