It is still a relatively young country with the highest share of its population at active working age. Myanmar’s more pressing needs are the following: a) reducing the incidence of poverty and improving human development outcomes, with a particular emphasis on reaching the poor and vulnerable. Children from poor families fare worse when it comes to nutrition, and education outcomes; and b) addressing the insecurity of incomes and developing mechanisms to reduce exposure to risks and ability to cope with ill-health, disasters and other shocks. This suggests a critical role for social protectionpolicies and programs in Myanmar’s strategy for poverty reduction and people-centered development. 2015-07-28T21:13:34Z 2015-07-28T21:13:34Z 2015-07-07 Report http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/2015/07/24764916/risks-vulnerabilities-along-life-cycle-role-social-protection-myanmar http://hdl.handle.net/10986/22319 English en_US CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo/ World Bank World Bank, Washington, DC Economic & Sector Work Economic & Sector Work :: Other Social Protection Study East Asia and Pacific Myanmar
