🇲🇲Myanmar

Myanmar faces a dual crisis of natural disasters and ongoing civil conflict. The country is vulnerable to cyclones, earthquakes, floods, and landslides. The 2008 Cyclone Nargis and the 2023 Cyclone Mocha demonstrated the devastating impact of tropical cyclones. Political instability since the 2021 military coup has severely impacted humanitarian access and disaster response capacity.
