Earlier this week, we have developed probable flooded area maps from October 3 and October 5, caused by heavy rains following Typhoon Krathon. These cover parts of Bago, Mandalay Regions, Shan and Kayah States.
These are now available on our dedicated page on 2024 Monsoon Flooding.
The latest MIMU village-level township maps, updated in accordance with Pcode version 9.5, are now available on the GIS resources page of the MIMU website.

"MIMU Community", the very first Viber channel from MIMU, was launched today.

It will feature Myanmar-related data, maps, publications, resources, and job vacancies from partner organizations, along with MIMU-developed products.
Myanmar is a country known for its ethnic diversity with around a hundred languages as illustrated in MIMU's 'Main Spoken Languages of Myanmar' map. Recognising this diversity is crucial for effective engagement with beneficiaries in humanitarian and development activities.
Over the years, MIMU has collected many awareness, information, education, and communication (IEC) materials in ethnic languages covering themes such as health, maternal and child care, COVID-19 response, disaster, and cyclone preparedness/response. These materials, sourced from and contributed by various organisations, include posters, infographics, manuals, as well as audio/video files.
As of August 2023, our repository includes over 250 different resources in 24 ethnic languages. This page aims to provide a single, easily accessible location for these while inspiring to create more inclusive resources targeted at ethnic communities.
MIMU's Infographics on Gender Equality in Myanmar in both Myanmar Language and English Language have been updated with data from 2014 to 2021, with support from UNFPA Myanmar. It is now also available as an interactive dashboard.
Myanmar’s 2021 state of gender equality in reproductive health, empowerment, and the labor market was summarised with developments (or lack thereof) since 2014.
MIMU Analytical Briefs shine a light on topical, emerging and under-explored issues relevant to humanitarian and development support in Myanmar based on analysis of available information. Building on topics included in the MIMU-HARP Vulnerability Study and available data, MIMU's Analytical Briefs contribute to further understanding of the vulnerability of Myanmar’s population, countrywide.
Total of four analytical briefs along with accompanying infographics, dashboards, methodology guides, and data sets were released in 2021 and 2022. The reports and infographics are produced in English and Myanmar languages.
