Myanmar Action Plan on Disaster Risk Reduction, 2017
The Myanmar Action Plan on Disaster Risk Reduction is a disaster risk reduction roadmap covering prioritized interventions across Myanmar until 2020. With a long-term vision and awareness of deep-rooted underlying drivers of disaster risk, it has set overall targets for 2030. It aims to provide a foundation for mobilizing and leveraging national and external resources and result-oriented outcomes.
The action plan has identified 32-priority actions under the four pillars, namely:
- Risk information and awareness
- Risk governance
- Risk mitigation
- Preparedness for response, rehabilitation and reconstruction
Each priority action has identified objectives, activities, outputs, duration and lead ministry/department. Also, other departments and partners to support the lead agency have been identified. The priority actions aim to strengthen policy framework and systems for long-term risk reduction.
