MIMU HDP Nexus 5W Trends - 2020 to 2024

Description: 

"MIMU’s HDP (Humanitarian, Development and Peace Focus) Nexus “Who does What Where, When and for Whom” database, or 5W, is a tool tracking the implementation of humanitarian, development and peace focused projects to support coordination, planning and efficient use of resources. MIMU has conducted this exercise regularly in Myanmar since 2008. Information is currently compiled every six months based on reports provided voluntarily by contributing agencies. The MIMU HDP Nexus 5W shows: ➢ which organizations (WHO), ➢ are carrying out which activities (WHAT), ➢ in which locations (WHERE), ➢ project status – whether planned, ongoing or completed (WHEN) ➢ project beneficiary focus (for WHOM) – whether focused on IDPs, IDPs and host communities, other vulnerable communities or are aimed to create further resilience and development in communities. MIMU HDP Nexus 5W Products capture information on the presence of organisations and do not indicate the volume of assistance, the number of beneficiaries, or the extent to which needs are met or unmet. Summary The MIMU HDP Nexus 5W Comparison report compares results from August 2020 to February 2024, looking particularly at the impact of events in early 2021 on agencies’ reported activities over time. 2021 saw a significant reduction in the number of reporting agencies and activities compared to the previous round in August 2020: Over 30% reduction in reporting agencies (from 213 agencies in Aug’ 2020 to 159/163 agencies in May/Oct 2021), mainly INGOs and NNGOs. 33% reduction in the number of projects reported countrywide (over 200 less projects) in 2021, with reductions mainly in Shan (over 100), Yangon (over 90) and Rakhine (over 60). A significant reduction in the number of activities reported as ongoing - 43,428 less activities in May 2021, mainly in Tanintharyi (84% reduction), Shan east (58%), Mon (57%), Shan south (55%) and Kayin (50%), and 35,930 less activities in Oct 2021, mainly in Rakhine (18%), Chin and Shan south (11% in each), Tanintharyi (10%), Kayin (9%), Shan north (8%) and Mon (7%). Suspension of activities was significant. The highest number of suspended activities were reported in May 2021 (19 times higher than in August 2020). 2023 and 2024 has seen increase in reporting agencies and reported activities compared to 2021: About 1,000 more village tracts/towns reported ongoing activities in 2023 and 200 more in 2024 (86%-78% of VTs/Towns around the country), mainly in Agriculture, Education, Health and Protection as compared to 2021. Less activities reported as suspended in 2024 (2% of total reported activities) compared to 2021 (around 10%) and Feb’ 2023 (1%) – this does not indicate however whether activities have ended/completed or resumed. Overall, despite the higher number of reporting agencies over the past 12 months: More activities were reported as “completed/ended” – 6,476 more completed/ended activities were found in Feb’ 2024 than Feb’ 2023. This change was particularly noted within Livelihoods activities, where one agency ended a project with a large number of micro credit activities in June 2023. A lower percentage of total activities were reported at VTs/Towns level as “ongoing” – 8% less ongoing activities reported as active (from 86% in Feb’ 2023 and 78% in Feb’ 2024) More suspended activities focused on Other Vulnerable Groups and IDP Focus (nearly 4 times increase in each group) in Feb’ 2024 compared to Feb’ 2023..."
