Empowering People for Change - ActionAid Myanmar's Strategy 2012-2017
This country strategy is guided by ActionAid International’s strategy, ‘People’s Action to End Poverty’, as well as by the voices of the people of Myanmar. It has been developed through an extensive consultative process from December 2011 to September 2012. In the consultation, a large and diverse group of stake holders participated including all staff of AAM, rights holders from different ethnic and religious groups, government line ministries, academicians, partners, peer organisations, the UN and Donors. In addition to consultation, a number of secondary documents have been used to obtain the necessary context and statistics including three external reviews commissioned by AAM. However, AAM and its partners’ work — especially from the Fellow’s experiences and achievements since 2006 – were the main inspiration and guiding factors in developing this strategy.
