UNICEF: USD 286 million needed in 2025 to provide emergency aid for 4.1 million people in Myanmar

UNICEF Myanmar has announced that USD 286 million is required in 2025 to deliver emergency services to 4.1 million people in Myanmar, including children.

Myanmar has endured escalating conflicts for the past four years, severely impacting children. Violence, displacement, and the collapse of essential services such as healthcare and education have threatened their survival and well-being, according to UNICEF.

One in three displaced persons is a child, now facing an uncertain future after being forced from their homes. In 2024 alone, 750 children were killed or injured due to ongoing conflicts, with the number continuing to rise.
