Danish Refugee Council (Myanmar)

DRC has been providing humanitarian-development nexus assistance to people affected by displacement in Myanmar since 2009, including currently across three states of Kachin, northern Shan, and Rakhine States.

Why we are there
The work of DRC in Myanmar is anchored in an approach that offers support across communities in urban, rural and isolated areas in Rakhine, Kachin and northern Shan – three of the seven states in Myanmar. DRC implements both directly and increasingly via local partners in response to pre-existing access constraints and Covid-19 restrictions.

What we do
In 2022, DRC has been focusing on responding to the immediate needs of internally displaced people (IDPs) and the communities hosting them, as well as building their resilience to shocks and stresses in the longer term, in line with the 2022 Humanitarian Response Plan.
