Welcome to UNFPA Myanmar
UNFPA‘s support for population activities in Myanmar began in 1973 with its assistance to the first population census. The Executive Board approved the first special programme of assistance to Myanmar in 2001 for the period 2002-2005; the programme was later extended through the end of 2006.
In September 2006, the UNFPA Executive Board approved a second programme of assistance to Myanmar (2007-2010). The focus of the second programme will be on helping Myanmar to realize its objective of reaching the Millennium Development Goals of reducing maternal
mortality and preventing HIV/AIDS. The intended outcome of the programme is the improved reproductive health status of the women and men of Myanmar, including adolescents and young people.
