Country Strategy

ACIAR’s strategy in Burma is to develop a small number of multilateral collaborative research projects that can have impact on improving nutrition and food security, either directly or through increases in farmers’ cash incomes. Particular regard is given to the humanitarian needs of Burma in order to align the ACIAR program with the focus of the Australian aid program in Burma. Projects are based in similar agroecological zones to those in Australia–-the central dry zone and tropical lowlands. There is a strong need for training due to the isolation of many of Burma’s agricultural scientists from international cooperation over recent years.
