Thanks to support from the Délégation à l’Action Humanitaire, the French Embassy in Yangon and the Fondation de France, this programme now includes:

The project is being implemented in 3 village tracks in Kungyangon Township which were heavily affected by the cyclone. Due to the scope of the devastation and aftermath, TGH works in coordination and cooperation with international organizations, including the UN, in applying best practices and following policy guidelines. Implementation of activities which fall outside the mandate of TGH will be performed by other competent partners.

In addition, TGH is conducting a needs assessment on the impact of the cyclone in terms of equipment loss, infrastructure destruction and social aspects across the affected areas with special focus on the fishery sector. Using a participatory approach with affected communities, the report will quantify the losses and identify the most vulnerable groups in order to determine the best way to resume the activities.
