dc.description.abstractThis report aims to produce a systematic account of the displacement experiences of IDPs in Myanmar and spotlight the unique demographic and socio-economic characteristics of this population. The report relies on the Multi-Sectoral Needs Assessment (MSNA). This household survey counts IDPs as a prominent group in its sample and was conducted in 2023 by a research and data collection agency in collaboration with the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) and the Inter-cluster Coordination Group (which includes the Shelter and NFI cluster). This 2023 round of MSNA was conducted before the escalation of conflict events in October 2023. As a result, the trends reported in this report do not capture the latest patterns of displacements. The report is organized as follows: chapter 2 describes the MSNA household survey data and adjustments applied to the data to ensure that they offer representative estimates at the subnational and population group levels. Chapter 3 reviews the displacement experiences of IDPs and those who have returned to their pre-displacement locations, i.e., returnees. Chapter 4 provides a demographic sketch of IDPs and returnees and shines a light on their civil registration status and their exposure to movement restrictions and landmine contamination. Chapter 5 explores whether IDPs can access education and health services and if these levels are commensurate with other population groups. Chapter 6 is a deeper dive into livelihoods, employment, earnings, consumption, food insecurity, and coping strategies of IDP families. Chapter 7 reviews access to WASH facilities and whether IDPs can access financial systems through formal, informal, or mobile money channels. Chapter 8 concludes by outlining a policy agenda for improving the lives of IDP households in Myanmar despite the fragile security environment in the country.en
