Access to family planning is a fundamental human right and is crucial to empower women and girls to realize their full potential. It is also one of the most cost-effective investments a country can make towards sustainable development. The 2016 assessment is a continuation of the 2014 and 2015 assessment activities and was implemented with support from the Department of Medical Research (Pyin Oo Lwin Branch) in collaboration with the Maternal and Reproductive Health Division, the Department of Public Health and the Department of Medical Services. The assessment aims to provide the required data for policymakers and programme implementers to strengthen the country’s Reproductive Health Security. Comparisons of some important parameters over the three years since the first assessment was undertaken are included in the report.

Census data shows that Myanmar can harness a double dividend – both youth and gender. This year’s annual report provides many facets of the journey to gender equality. It tells a story of widening horizons for women and girls who are capable in their own right. It is also a story of women fulfilling their reproductive rights, and of couples having access to family planning choices.

This assessment is the first of its kind to be conducted in the south-eastern region of Myanmar. It is an important contribution to ensuring the full inclusion of women and children in Myanmar’s political, social, and cultural systems, with a specific focus on the issue of gender-based violence (GBV) and its impact on these groups in south-eastern Myanmar. The United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) is grateful for the participation of women, men, boys and girls from Mon, Kayin and Kayah States for sharing their views and experiences during the study.
