Introducing Awareness Materials in Ethnic Languages Page

Myanmar is a country known for its ethnic diversity with around a hundred languages as illustrated in MIMU's 'Main Spoken Languages of Myanmar' map. Recognising this diversity is crucial for effective engagement with beneficiaries in humanitarian and development activities.

Over the years, MIMU has collected many awareness, information, education, and communication (IEC) materials in ethnic languages covering themes such as health, maternal and child care, COVID-19 response, disaster, and cyclone preparedness/response. These materials, sourced from and contributed by various organisations, include posters, infographics, manuals, as well as audio/video files.

As of August 2023, our repository includes over 250 different resources in 24 ethnic languages. This page aims to provide a single, easily accessible location for these while inspiring to create more inclusive resources targeted at ethnic communities.
