World Vision has responded to the needs of hundreds of thousands of survivors of Cyclone Nargis, which struck in May 2008.

During the emergency phase the agency provided survival kits, food, temporary shelter, household items, water, sanitation and hygiene essentials, as well as access to health services, emergency livelihood assistance and child protection activities.

During the first year, World Vision provided direct assistance to 399 villages in the townships of Bogale, Hainggyi, Pyapon, Dedaye and Kyaiklatt.

In the second year, World Vision focused on empowering 109,000 people living in 143 villages in Bogale, Hainggyi and Pyapon townships – building the communities’ ability to improve the well-being and protection of their children, for the future.

The potential for future loss of life to cyclones, as well as the economic impact of disasters are also being tackled with disaster risk preparedness activities and planning, in which whole villages participate.
