Given NCDDP operates in rural areas across the country a similar proportion of the townships where NCDDP now operates can be defined as conflict-affected.2 The report: examines overall project performance in conflict-affected townships; looks at the effectiveness of specific adaptations to the project that have been introduced to support implementation in townships affected by conflict; and examines the influence the project has had on the broader context in conflict-affected townships. The aim of the report is to inform on-going NCDDP operations and adaptations for operations in conflict-affected townships. The report also aims to inform broader programs, both from the Government of Myanmar and the World Bank, by providing lessons on implementing in conflict-affected areas. 2020-07-17T16:38:46Z 2020-07-17T16:38:46Z 2020-01 Report http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/362381593150156463/A-Review-of-the-Myanmar-National-Community-Driven-Development-Project-in-Conflict-Affected-Contexts http://hdl.handle.net/10986/34141 English 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 :: Social Analysis East Asia and Pacific Myanmar
