I would describe the part of our national water management project concern with this January theme.
As everybody knows, the world’s climate is changing based on quantity of natural resources. Natural resources are with limitations and people are over exploiting on it. To recover it, people will have to change their habit and try to balance the nature and society. Myanmar is the tropical climate region and full with natural resources in the past, but nowadays the climate change is happen and the mangrove trees are felled for the livelihoods. Due to that, disaster like flooding and land sliding were happen and thousands of lives and households were taking by that. In some rivers in the delta region, salinity intrusion in ground and increased coastal inundation were occurred. These also impacted habitations, agriculture, roads, rails and industry in such regions. By taking this regret lessons, there are many projects which are focusing on the replantation of mangrove trees along the coastlines mainly Rakhine, Ayeyarwady and Tanintharyi region. In Ayeyarwady, mangrove forest cover was changed from 732522 acre in 1980 to 61399 acre in 2007. In Tanintharyi, it was changed from 482099 acre to 469681 acre during 1980 to 2007. In Rakhine, it was changed from 413850 to 240968 within 1980 to 2007. Many INGOs and NGOs are doing many activities like capacity building, biodiversity conservation, natural forest management, water resources management, community forestry, agriculture, income generation, livestock and fishery, inventory, and nursery plantation. These kinds of activities were really effective and it is now moving on state by state and monitoring processes are also taking out there. A project should be treated as the start of a long term, open-ended process that is externally driven. All the activities should be planned, implemented and monitored from a landscapes perspective to focus on the integrated management. Also community must really feel themselves as the ownership of the village and land use plans. So that negotiations and discussions must be done. Last but not least, project requires much flexibility to allow local context to determine how different villages get involved. |

Hey Hnin!
I trust you are well! It is quite sad that just like my country, your too has a grave national water management project concern. Our natural water resource has undergone so much stress and all thanks to global warming and climate change changing the Earth's natural cycle.
So I do agree with how you have described how a project should be conducted. Especially the part where community members should play part into the decision making process.
Thank you for reporting Hnin!
Yours sincerely

Sad to hear the effects seen on mangrove plants and several fields of Myanmar due to climate change. Similar effects has been observed in Nepal as Nepal is fourth vulnerable nation in the context of effects of climate change.
We must focus on the adaption and mitigation method of the climate change identifying the proper solution as its effects and solution are region specific.
Thank you for your beautiful report Hnin.
Keep writing great reports
Green Cheers :) :_)
