Myanmar: WHO Health Emergency Appeal 2026

Overview

Myanmar faces a protracted humanitarian emergency driven by armed conflict, mass displacement and recurrent natural disasters, including the March 2025 earthquake. In 2026, 9.3 million people will require health assistance as attacks on health care, access restrictions and disease outbreaks continue to disrupt services. Cholera, malaria and dengue are rising, while routine immunization remains severely disrupted. WHO is delivering life-saving health services, sustaining outbreak surveillance and supporting essential care in high-risk and hard-to-reach areas.
