Foreword

Myanmar aims to achieve a healthy and happy society that is able to resist changes in climate regimes and whose economic development will be implemented through integrated low carbon approaches by 2030. The Myanmar Climate Change Master Plan (2018-2030) has been formulated and adopted with the view toward mainstreaming a series of prioritized sectoral short, medium and long term actions identified in the Myanmar Climate Change Policy and Strategy.

The Myanmar Climate Change Master Plan (2018-2030) showcases the result of extensive in-depth sectoral consultations and bilateral discussions by line ministerial departments and enterprises, city development committees, research and academia, private and non-governmental organizations, civil-society organizations, development partners from national and international agencies, experts, technical working groups of Myanmar Climate Change Alliance (MCCA) as well as comments from relevant sub-national stakeholders.

The Myanmar Climate Change Master Plan (2018-2030) clearly defines a series of high-priority activities, their respective strategic indicators, and the responsibilities of involved stakeholders across six specific sectors prioritized in Myanmar Climate Change Strategy defined as: “climate-smart agriculture, fisheries and livestock for food security, sustainable management of natural resources for healthy ecosystems, resilient and low-carbon energy, transport and industrial systems for sustainable growth, building resilient, inclusive and sustainable cities and towns in Myanmar, managing climate risks for people’s health and well-being, and building a resilient Myanmar society through education, science and technology”.

The Environmental Conservation Department (ECD) has great confidence that this master plan will provide a guiding roadmap for proactive sectoral preparedness in tailoring and scaling down the responses needed to address annual climate-induced natural disasters facing with Myanmar as well as stimulating opportunities for long term economic development along low carbon pathways. In addition, this Master Plan serves as an operationalizing framework for ensuring Myanmar’s achievement of its Nationally Determined Contributions (NDC) to the 2015 Global Climate Change Paris Agreement.


Page 6

As a national cross-sectoral framework, ECD strongly urges all ministerial and sub-national governments, and investments from private and public organizations to incorporate the Myanmar Climate Change Master Plan (2018-2030) objectives and targets, and necessary budgetary allocations within their respective short and long term development plans, aligning with the specific targets set for 2020, 2025 and 2030. In addition, ECD strongly encourages private sector and development partners to support the government through develop its capacity in terms of technology, finance and human resources.

ECD would like to express its gratitude to the many departments, technical working groups, experts from national and international organizations, non-governmental organizations, civil societies, and private citizens who have contributions to the formulation of this guiding framework, the Myanmar Climate Change Master Plan (2018-2030).

Introduction: how to use the master plan

This part contains the master plan (MP) for the MCCS (2018–2030), to be implemented by partners in each of Myanmar's six key sectoral areas:

1. Agriculture, fisheries and livestock 2. Environment and natural resources 3. Energy, transport and industry 4. Cities, towns and human settlements 5. Climate hazards and health 6. Education, science and technology

Each sectoral area has a designated focal agency that will monitor progress against the master plan.

The master plan was formulated through over a year-long process of stakeholder consultations — from April 2015 to August 2016 — with representatives from several sectors, brought together under the Technical Working Group (TWG) of the Myanmar Climate Change Alliance Programme (MCCA). The result of these intense exchanges is a series of activities for each area of action, which we set out in this part. Although not a comprehensive list of all the actions possible in these broad sectors, they represent key entry points, with tangible and measurable outputs, that will contribute to achieving the MCCS’s overall goal: ‘By 2030, Myanmar has achieved climate-resilience and pursued a low-carbon growth pathway to support inclusive and sustainable development’ in line with the national vision of the MCCS, which is to ‘transform Myanmar into a climate-resilient and carbon-efficient nation that is capable of harnessing the benefits of low-carbon, resilient development for present and future generations in a sustainable and inclusive manner’.

Master Plan’s design

The master plan’s design includes: an overall outcome and expected results for the sector; strategic indicators; objectives for areas of action; activities for these objectives; outputs for the activities; indicators for each action; and timeframes and responsibilities. In this section, we provide an overview of each of these components.


Page 11

1. Sectoral outcomes: These are concise descriptions of what the sector will resemble after the successful implementation of the master plan. The six sectoral outcomes are:

(a) Climate-resilient productivity and climate-smart responses in the agriculture, fisheries and livestock sectors to support food security and livelihood strategies while also promoting resource-efficient and low-carbon practices

(b) Natural resource management that enhances the resilience of biodiversity and ecosystem services that support social and economic development and deliver carbon sequestration

(c) Climate-resilient and low-carbon energy, transport and industrial systems that support inclusive and sustainable development and economic growth

(d) All township and city dwellers, including the most vulnerable, are safe from increased risks of rapid- and slow-onset natural disasters and live in sustainable, inclusive, low-carbon, climate-resilient towns

(e) Communities and economic sectors are able to respond to and recover from climate-induced disasters, risks and health impacts and build a healthy society, and

(f) Strengthened education, awareness and technological systems that foster a climate-responsive society and human capital to design and implement climate-resilient and low-carbon development solutions for inclusive and sustainable development

Achieving all these sectoral outcomes will help Myanmar achieve the MCCS's main objectives and reach its overall goal of achieving climate-resilience and pursued a low-carbon growth pathway to support inclusive and sustainable development by 2030.

2. Sectoral expected results: These are the key minimal and tangible achievements each sector must attain to achieve the sectoral outcome. They are the building blocks that drive sectoral action.


Page 12

3. Strategic indicators: An indication of the type of processes, laws, policies and activities that must be set up in order to monitor change. Indicators do not include numeric baselines for now, although the strategy's implementation mechanism may decide to improve them.

4. Objectives for areas of action: These are six areas for action that activities that stakeholders have agreed to focus on during the consultations. They are the objectives each sector aims to attain and activities under each master plan fall under one of the six areas of action (policy, institutions, finance, capacity and technology, awareness, partnerships).

For example, Objective for action area 1: "To integrate climate change in environment and natural resource management policies, plans, research and development, and extension services at national, sectoral and local levels.”

5. Activities for these objectives: These are all the activities, as agreed by stakeholders during the consultations, that will contribute to achieving the objectives under each area of action. They range from ongoing projects and sectoral activities that need to be continued and strengthened, to new projects that need to be initiated.

6. Outputs for the activities: Each activity has one or more output that can be achieved within the duration of the strategy. Delivering these outputs will contribute to achieving the expected sectoral results.

7. Indicators: These are both quantitative and qualitative, and show stakeholders which signs to observe to monitor progress. Target values and baselines for these indicators are not presented at this stage; but rather provide an indication of how to monitor progress that the implementation mechanism can improve as required.

8. Timeframe: This is divided in three segments: activities taking place within 3, 8 and 13 years, corresponding to the short, medium and long term. Sectors need to report on or record their activities within these segments. So, for example, activities that can be initiated and achieved in two years fall within the short-term segment while those that will achieve outputs in six years fall under the medium-term. Activities that can be completed only in the long-term fall under the 13-year segment. Some activities -


Page 13

such as awareness - will fall under all three segments, as we expect that, although tangible outputs can appear in the short term, they will require continuation over time.

9. Responsibility: This sets out roles and responsibilities for leading, driving, reporting on and participating in the actions and activities. An ambitious strategy like the MCCS cannot be achieved without the participation of many different actors.

10. Actors and reporting: Each sector has an overall focal agency that reports to the secretariat on overall progress towards each sectoral outcome. For ease of monitoring and reporting, the MCCS reports on progress towards sectoral expected results only.

There is a lead for each action and activity. The focal agencies are responsible for regularly reporting progress towards sectoral outcomes by consulting the different leads.

3. Resilient and low-carbon energy transport and industrial systems for sustainable growth


Climate-resilient and low-carbon energy, transport and industrial systems that support inclusive and sustainable development and economic growth.



Energy security for the country is based on generating a large share of its energy from renewable sources and high energy efficiency in domestic, industrial and other use

# of sectoral laws and norms that are inspired by sustainability concerns

% implementation of the Green Growth Framework

High share of energy generated from sustainable, renewable sources within the timeframe of the MCCS

% of existing rules and regulations in industrial and transport sectors enforced, to ensure low-carbon and air quality thresholds are respected at national and urban levels

# of incentive schemes in place to support the private sector to transition to low-carbon production, investment in renewables and management of production processes

# of schemes and programmes that incentivise the introduction of solar power energy generation, biomass and other sustainable sources of renewable energy

# number of businesses that introduce climate change in their business planning to ensure resilience and protect jobs

# of green jobs created

Transport systems are adapted to heightened risks of disasters from new climatic conditions and sustainable through efficiency and low-carbon technologies

Industrial systems are highly productive and competitive due to their climate-resilient, sustainable, low-carbon and green characteristics.

All township and city dwellers, including the most vulnerable, are safe from increased risks of rapid- and slow-onset natural disasters and live in sustainable, inclusive, low-carbon, climate-resilient towns.



Town and city residents have access to resilient infrastructure and services that protect them from natural hazards of increased intensity, continue to perform during and after shocks and are best adapted to the new climatic context

Local and national spatial and land-use planning frameworks include climate change considerations from a low baseline

# of laws, policies and by-laws for urban management and development that include climate change, from a low baseline

% of new, converted, retrofitted infrastructure, basic services and buildings, that are climate change responsive, from a low baseline

% of town planners, architects and engineers who can to assist townships and cities to plan and manage with climate change considerations from a low baseline

# of township and city climate change action plans based on ecosystem adaptation or other approaches that support development of green cities

Climate change resilience, low-carbon development and social inclusivity approaches are defining elements of urban planning and development, providing mitigation and adaptation co-benefits

New buildings are designed and constructed to be energy- and resource-efficient and resilient to natural hazards and disasters; they emit less carbon and produce savings from reduced energy consumption, thus providing equity and affordability


Page 57

# of real estate, developers and private industries who integrate climate change in their development projects


1. Integrate climate change into urban development and management legal, policy, normative and planning instruments.

2. Build climate change-responsive institutional and decentralised processes in urban settings.

3. Build financial capacities for addressing climate change at local level, using multiple sources of funding.

4. Increase access to technology for urban climate resilience.

5. Increase the human resource capacities and awareness of CDCs and townships to address climate change.

6. Promote public-private and civil society partnerships at town and city levels for climate change resilience and sustainable urban development.

5. Climate risk management for people’s health and wellbeing


Communities and economic sectors are able to respond to and recover from climate-induced disasters, risks and health impacts and build a healthy society.



Climate risk management system is well established, robust and nationally integrated to respond effectively to increased intensity and impact of risks and hazards on people’s health and wellbeing

# of climate risk management systems developed, including risk- informed policy development and planning guidelines, tools and framework

# of local communities, local government an CSOs with access to risk mapping, early warning system and disaster-resilient technologies for disaster preparedness and emergency management and response

# of states and townships with capacity for climate risk management planning

# of social protection policies, strategies, budgeting and plans that integrate climate change

# of private sector companies, development partners, government bodies, CSOs and international communities who allocate % of resources to social protection and resilience-building activities

# of states and townships that integrate climate change in their budgeting system to finance climate risk management and social protection

Myanmar has improved social protection, gender consideration and risk finance capacity to prepare for and recover from potential loss and damage resulting from climate change

Myanmar’s health system is improved and can deal with climate-induced health hazards and support climate-vulnerable communities to respond effectively to disaster and health hazards from climate change


Page 70

activities at national and sub-national levels

# of laws, by-laws, policies and plans within the health sector that integrate climate change

# of health professionals and government staff with capacity for climate risk and disaster mapping, early health hazard detection and forecasting and resilient planning

# of households in climate-vulnerable states or regions and townships with access to improved health and sanitation practices and resilient health infrastructures


1. Integrate climate change into disaster risk reduction, social protection and health legal, policy and normative instruments.

2. Build institutional and decentralised processes to plan and implement climate change responses.

3. Build financial capacities for addressing climate change at local level, using multiple sources.

4. Increase access to technology for climate risk management and improved health and wellbeing.

5. Increase human resource capacities and awareness of communities, government, private sector and CSOs to address climate-induced risk and disasters.

6. Promote public-private and civil society partnerships at national and sub-national level for climate change resilience and sustainability.

Annex I: Detailed strategy formulation process


Page 94

1. Description of the process

The MONRECi has coordinated the formulation of the Myanmar Climate Change Strategy 2018–2030 (MCCS) and its related master plan throughout the formulation and adoption process. It reached agreement on the methodology in December 2014, started the formulation in April 2015 and completed it in 2016.

The MCCS is one of the key outputs of the MCCA, a programme implemented by the United Nations Human Settlements Programme (UN-Habitat) and the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) with funds from the European Union, from 2013 to 2018.

The MCCS was formulated through an interactive process of evidence generation, involving consultations with a multiplicity of actors at national, sub-national and local levels. Most of these consultations were under the MCCA's TWG, comprising representatives from government ministries, universities, the three main city development committees, the private sector (UMFCCI), civil society and development partners such as UNDP, Action Aid, Braced Programme and DRR Working Group. A number of other development partners, NGOs, civil society organisations (CSOs), the Youth Forum, township administrations and citizen groups also participated in consultations and interviews or provided direct inputs.

The MCCS therefore reflects multiple views and perspectives and captures this diversity effectively. Designed with principles of inclusion and oriented to the delivery of results, the MCCS can be monitored as a long-term programme or project. As well as direct consultations and interviews, the drafting team reviewed policy documents and secondary data, working on all available published policies, laws, documents and available advanced drafts with national importance.

Participants of the MCCA inception workshop in December 2014 agreed the methodology for the strategy. Workshop participants included the TWG, government officials from key ministries and representatives from UN agencies, development partner organisations, NGOs, local government, and private sector organisations. They discussed the process for formulating the MCCS - including priority areas for consultations at national, sub-national and local level - and set up four workstreams:

1. Defining the scope of the MCCS

2. Understanding vulnerability, risks and mitigation potential

i Formerly the Ministry of Environmental Conservation and Forestry. It became MONREC in April 2016.


Page 95

3. Developing and disseminating the MCCS, and

4. Periodic review and updating.

Under the direction of the ECD, the MCCA had delivered workstreams 1 to 3 by July 2016. It will continue delivering Workstreams 3 (dissemination) and 4 for the duration of its lifespan. The MCCS has also set up other mechanisms to ensure Workstream 4 is delivered.

ECD has played a central advisory role to guide the team in each phase of research, supported by MCCA and the strategy drafting team comprising International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED), MERN and the MCCA.

Every effort has been made to align the strategy with Myanmar’s socioeconomic development objectives and with policy documents; environmental policy; annual, medium and long-term development plans; the second Framework for Economic and Social Reform (FESR) and decentralisation policy. Because the MCCA developed the strategy, and the MCCA has also advised the government in several climate change aspects, the strategy is aligned as much as possible to several other climate change or environment policies that the government has been drafted in parallel. These include the INDC, which MCCA contributed to, and the Green Growth Framework, whose drafting team repeatedly consulted with MCCA.

2. Guiding principles of MCCS formulation

The strategy formulation has been guided by the following set of principles:

Ensuring policy coherence: The MCCS builds on existing climate change policies, including the National Adaptation Programme of Action, INDC, REDD+ roadmap, the Climate Smart Agriculture Policy. This strategy complements planned climate change policies, including the National Climate Change Policy, the National Adaptation Plan and the Green Growth Strategy. Its vision, objectisves and priorities are aligned with national and sector development plans and implementation arrangements, including the National Comprehensive Development Plan, sustainable development agenda, energy policies and plans, Environment Policy and associated action plan, DRR policies and plans, and other national policies and sectoral strategy and priorities.

Ensuring multi-stakeholder engagement: Multiple stakeholders have been engaged in drafting the MCCS, at national and sub-national levels. The formally established MCCA TWG oversaw the formulation process and provided technical inputs throughout, while the PSC of the MCCA ensured policy guidance. So, the strategy was prepared in close


Page 96

consultation with national and local level stakeholders who represented a cross-section of government institutions, national NGOs, civil society, community representatives, private sector actors, development partners, professionals and academia from a wide range of sectors. Bilateral discussions, three national and five sub-national workshops were conducted by the drafting team and with the support of MCCA to engage with stakeholders. The sub-national workshops took place in five of Myanmar’s climate-vulnerable states or regions, with more than 600 participants from local government, CSOs, communities and the private sector. The MCCA worked in parallel at local level for adaptation, capturing views on climate change from 23 townships in six states and regions. Altogether, some 2,000 individuals representing more than 40 institutions at national and sub-national level took part in the strategy development process, which clearly acknowledged that a vast body of knowledge resides with a dispersed and diverse range of stakeholders and experts.

Providing strategic direction: The MCCS provides a strategic direction to achieve climate-resilient and low-carbon development results. The strategy guides investment in six priority sectors, identified by stakeholders as key for inclusive climate-resilient and low-carbon development. They are a mix of primary, secondary and tertiary sectors that all play a key role in economic and social development. Stakeholders identified a need to put in place a strong implementation framework for the strategy and identified three key implementation pillars to support the MCCS:

(a) An enabling environment that establishes policy, institutional, financial and M&E systems

(b) Support to climate-smart decision making, and (c) Multi-stakeholder partnerships to invest in low-carbon and resilience

interventions.

Ensuring a result-based approach: All actors consulted - particularly government and development partners - insisted on the need to formulate a strategy that can be implemented as a project to achieve measurable results. Recognising the challenges involved in setting up baselines and indicators, the MCCS is nonetheless inspired by the logic of results and measurability. For this reason, it uses the logical framework language of expected outcomes, expected results, objectives and indicators.


Page 97

3. Methodology and process

Once the overall methodology was approved in December 2014, the ECD and MCCA proceeded through five consecutive phases (see Figure):

Figure 1: The five phases of the MCCS formulation process

Phase 1. Defining the objectives and scope of the MCCS

Process

In the first phase of evidence generation, the MCCA TWG convened to agree on the main purpose, objectives and methods for formulating the strategy and a preliminary outline of strategy and master plans. The newly-formed TWG met officially, for the first time after the inception workshop in December 2014, at the initial national climate change strategy and master plan workshop on 7–8 April 2015 in Nay Pyi Taw.

About 200 people participated in this workshop, including development partners and other non-members of the TWG. Workshop participants agreed on the following aspects of the strategy:

1. Scope and purpose

2. Vision, which they later revised

3. Timeframe

4. Policy alignment

5. Mission (or overall objectives)

7. Sectoral engagement

8. Draft outline (table of contents)

10. Roles and responsibilities in different sectors.

The workshop agreed on the planning and reconfirmed the methodology for the strategy and master plan formulation. Participants also agreed on the place and timings for national and local consultations, as follows:

During this first phase, the MCCA also focused on supporting the Government, through the mobilization of the TWG, for other policy processes, such as formulating the INDC between April and September 2015, for submission to the UNFCCC by 30 September 2015. Although this diverted the focus from the strategy, it was extremely useful to consolidate areas of work and sector thematic groups. It was also useful to increase TWG members' awareness on climate change, which in turn supported the elaboration of the MCCS.

The methodology to assess capacities to address climate change in Myanmar, recruited experts and started the study.

Phase 2. Data collection, thematic consultations and sub-national workshops

Process

Phase two involved the bulk of data collection and analysis, which informed the strategy formulation. Data collection took place between August and October 2015. ECD led the process, through MCCA, with the support of consultants from the International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED) contracted by UN Environment under MCCA; MERN; the chief technical advisor of MCCA and other experts.

This phase involved two main streams of work — one based on a secondary data review and bilateral or thematic meetings at national level, and the other based on local level consultations. For the latter, we clustered townships identified for the sub-national consultations according to vulnerability, geography and administrative arrangements and host townships according to their administration arrangements.


Page 101

Policy review: For the policy and institutional review, the team first reviewed national

and international policy documents to situate the MCCS within Myanmar’s policy and institutional framework. These included Myanmar’s national, sectoral and sub-national policy documents, development partners’ country strategies and other secondary resources. The review revealed Myanmar’s policy direction and corresponding management, financing and evaluation arrangements. The team reviewed climate change documents such as the INC, National Adaptation Programme of Action, INDC, REDD+ roadmap; national policies to address natural disasters, such as Myanmar’s Action Plan for Disaster Risk Reduction (MAPDRR); multilateral environmental agreements; and resource management approaches. A review was undertaken of policies for various sectors, including energy, agriculture, forests, industry, transport, urban settlements, water, DRR, biodiversity, education and health.

Key informant interviews: The team also conducted a series of key informant interviews with individuals and organisations between 24 August and 15 October 2015. Key organisations included government bodies such as the ECD, MOPF, MOALI, MOSWRR and DMH; the MCCA; and individual development partners, including the Norwegian Agency for Development Cooperation (NORAD) and the UK’s Foreign and Common wealth Office. Key individuals included climate experts, namely INDC consultants. Interview data supported the workshop and review outputs, clarifying government ministries' policy and operational processes and reinforcing the MCCS’s scope and focus. The team also organised meetings with the Environmental Sectoral Working Group.

Vulnerability assessment: The team then proceeded to a vulnerability assessment, identifying initial options for building climate resilience in Myanmar and opportunities for low-carbon development. The assessment, based on exposure, sensitivity and adaptive capacity, the three key dimensions of vulnerability identified by the IPCC, revealed experienced and potential climate change impacts on assets and systems, including critical thresholds; asset and system priorities, according to their vulnerability; and options and actions for adaptation and mitigation. The team collated the evidence from these activities in a database to enable cross-policy, cross-sectoral and cross-level analyses to be made.

Consultation workshops: MCCA organised a series of national-level consultation

workshops to gather information and feedback on the data generated so far. Participants

identified the vulnerability of assets and systems, ascertained priorities across sectors and stakeholder groups and strategised practical responses. They verified and expanded the information gathered in Phase 1. These workshops included:

First civil society forum (29 September 2015, Nay Pyi Taw): Participants included CSO

practitioners, NGO practitioners and government ministers. CSOs highlighted their resilience and low-carbon objectives, sectoral priorities and corresponding actions. Participants offered feedback on the scope and objectives of the MCCS and strategised collaboratively on actions to meet shared objectives.

First national technical consultation workshop (30 September to 2 October 2015): Participants included the TWG, other government officials, CSO and NGO practitioners, research institutions and development partners. Participants verified sector-level information and identified sectoral priorities and actions. Sessions included energy and industry; agriculture, fisheries and livestock; forests and biodiversity; urban environments and transport, DRR; education; and planning and finance; with participants taking part in individual sessions according to their expertise. Participants provided feedback on climate changes and their impacts, policies, institutional arrangements, financial structures and climate information activities. They discussed each sector in the context of the proposed MCCS objectives, identifying and prioritising necessary actions and identifying related capacity requirements.

Development partner consultation (15 October 2015): Hosted by the Development Partners Group and attended by representatives from NORAD, DFID, EU, UNESCO, UN-Habitat and JICA. Participants provided feedback on the scope and objectives of the MCCS, verified their country-level activities and examined their future objectives and funding priorities.

Sub-national consultation workshops: Organised managed and facilitated by local NGO, MERN, according to the list agreed in Phase 1. Each workshop took place over three days, with 600 participants attending the five workshops in five states or regions. Local government officials were the primary participants, along with some local NGO practitioners. The workshops provided information on climate impacts, priorities and responses across different geographical zones in Myanmar. At each workshop, discussions and activities provided information on:

1. Change in climate, based on scientific data


Page 103

2. Local perception of current climate change 3. Projected future climate change (short/mid/long term) 4. Vulnerable sectors, areas and groups 5. Available capacity and capacity development needs 6. Prioritised actions to address future vulnerabilities 7. Policy and institutional assessment, and 8. Mitigation potential.

At the same time, MCCA conducted consultations in select a townships for ecosystem-based adaptation to climate change projects in the Delta and Dry Zone areas. This meant they consulted an extra 500 people in additional townships and communities on the issues of climate change and on the priorities. In parallel to these consultations, the capacity development assessment team also interviewed participants on their existing capacities to deliver the options identified and initiated a draft assessment based on the results.


1. 1,100 people consulted in 23 townships (13 officially for the MCCS)

2. TWG, 30+ permanent members consulted as a whole and in thematic groups

3. Civil society forum consulted about 15 CSOs 4. Development partners consultations (2) 5. Documents reviewed 6. Database set up 7. Capacity development assessment zero draft.

Phase 3. Initial validation and improvement, first draft of strategy

Process

As a result of the analysis of the data gathered in Phase 2, the team formulated an annotated draft of the MCCS in November 2015 for validation. Members of the TWG agreed the scope of the draft. The content relied on a preliminary analysis of information collected from the policy and institutional review, secondary sources and multi-stakeholder workshops and key person interviews.

The team submitted the draft for validation at the second national workshop for the formulation of the Myanmar Climate Change Strategy and Master Plan in Nay Pyi Taw on 2 November 2015, with the TWG providing feedback and clarification. They identified the following thematic areas for the master plans: agriculture and food security; forest and biodiversity; DRR and early warning systems; energy, industry, buildings and transport; urban and human settlements; and education and awareness.

The team used the feedback to validate and fine-tune the preliminary draft in preparation for presentation at the international Global Climate Change Alliance workshop at COP 21 in Paris in December 2015. ECD and MCCA participated in COP 21, where MONREC's deputy director general also presented the essence of the preliminary MCCS at a meeting. The team integrated the feedback from both these events into the MCCS advanced drafts and undertook a subsequent consultation process to validate and develop the master plans.

Phase 4. Additional information gathering and validation of the advanced draft

Process

With the aim of collecting additional information and feedback to produce an advanced draft and seek validation, the team started Phase 4 in January 2016, with a second round of national consultations between 23 February and 8 March. These meetings aimed to finali semaster plans for addressing sectoral climate change with clear milestones and timeframes, and additional input to the MCCS.

The meetings includedthematic consultations - half-day workshops for each thematic sector where 10–20 primary stakeholders reviewed, validated and advised upon the draft master plans and agreed milestones and timelines. The team refined the master plans, based on the guidance they received at these consultations.


Page 106

At the same time, the team organised a TWG workshop on 3 March 2016 to discuss the strategy's main components and revised master plans. The TWG members provided input for further refinement. A second smaller meeting with the civil society group in Yangon, on 4 March 2016 ensured their views were captured properly.

Based on the additional information and further discussions, the drafting team produced a new version of the draft strategy in March 2016, and submitted it to the MCCA and ECD. This draft underwent internal reformulation and improvement including new data and in view of the new understanding from Myanmar's national transition in April 2016, strengthening the overall output between April and May 2016. Experts from UN-Habitat and UN Environment, with MCCA and ECD, analysed the draft strategy to check facts, strengthen the narrative and reinforce the coherence of the strategic pillars.

On 5 June 2016 -World Environment Day - the team presented the advanced draft summary to high-level representatives, and received further inputs. On 10 June 2016, the team presented abstracts of the advanced draft at the third Myanmar Climate Change Strategy workshop in Nay Pyi Taw. The meeting, attended by more than 150 people, in particular the TWG and partners, revisited the overall strategy pillars, worked on the details of the master plan and provided feedback and input to strengthen the activities and refine the milestones. The team also submitted the abstracts to the Youth National Forum for their analysis and comments, which they provided on 17 June 2016 for inclusion. The team in charge of the capacity development need assessment also presented their findings at the workshop.
