Three months have passed since the devastating 7.7 magnitude earthquake struck central Myanmar on 28 March 2025, yet humanitarian conditions remain critical. Early rains have further deteriorated the living situation for many children and families still residing in makeshift shelters, struggling to rebuild their lives. Access to clean water, sanitation, healthcare, and protection services, particularly for those displaced in Mandalay and Sagaing, remains dire. The earthquake compounds an already dire humanitarian situation where nearly 20 million people already needed humanitarian assistance across the country due to prolonged conflict, recurring natural disasters and economic collapse.

Dr Kyi reflects on how Myanmar’s fight against hunger, amid earthquakes, conflict, and economic crisis seems daunting—but not impossible. Hope can still grow in the midst of crisis. A hunger-free world is possible for the children in Myanmar but that will require a united commitment to peace and resilience, and global solidarity.
