This Environmental Country Profile was authored by Eva Samalea (Sustainable Shelter and Settlements Consultant) with support from Mandy George (Senior Environmental Adviser, Global Shelter Cluster).

The development of the Environmental Country Profile for the Myanmar Shelter Cluster would not have been possible without the generous support of USAID's Bureau for Humanitarian Assistance and the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC). With thanks to the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) for their leadership as Global Shelter Cluster co-lead agency, providing invaluable guidance and coordination throughout this process. A special acknowledgment is extended to the UNHCR Cluster team for their invaluable support during the development of this profile. Their proactive engagement with partners and their dedication to creating and enabling a space for meaningful discussions were crucial in bringing together the diverse expertise and perspectives of the Environmental Country Profile Technical Working Group (ECP TWG). Their leadership has significantly enhanced the depth and quality of the information presented in this profile.

Last but not least, gratitude is extended to all the members of the ECP Technical Working Group operating in Myanmar. Your proactive efforts, dedication, and unwavering commitment to this initiative were crucial in gathering the critical information that forms the backbone of this profile. Thank you for openly sharing your resources, conducting Focus Group Discussions with communities, and showing a clear commitment to strengthening collaboration among Cluster partners. Your collective efforts have ensured that this profile not only reflects on-the-ground realities but also promotes a unified approach to advancing sustainable and effective shelter solutions in Myanmar.
