Summary of publication
This document outlines Australia's aid strategy to Myanmar from 2012 to 2014.
The purpose of Australian aid to Myanmar is to help people overcome poverty by focusing on four objectives:
- improving the delivery of basic education and health services to the poor
- improving the livelihoods of the rural poor
- addressing the needs of conflict and disaster-affected people
- supporting reform and improved governance.
Over the two-year period of this interim Australia – Myanmar Aid Program Strategy (2012–14), Australia will review these objectives, our programs and those of other development partners to ensure our assistance is provided where it will be most effective. As more donors arrive in Myanmar and existing donors grow their programs, we will actively manage the increased risks of duplication of effort, program fragmentation and wasted funding.
