For families displaced from their homes in Loikaw, Kayah State, everyday life can mean facing uncertainty.
Basic items such as blankets, kitchen sets and other essentials can bring comfort and help families get through difficult days.
A safe place to live can make a big difference after displacement.
“When I was first displaced, we had to live in a makeshift shelter with a tarpaulin roof shared with many others. Now we have a shelter built with bamboo, with more privacy, and I feel more safe.”
For B Hkawn Naw, who is displaced in Myitkyina, Kachin State, having a more secure shelter has brought a greater sense of safety and comfort. It is a simple change, but one that helps make daily life feel a little easier.

More than 16 million people in #Myanmar need humanitarian assistance and millions have been forced from their homes.
Myanmar cannot be forgotten.

Clothing kits to meet everyday needs.
In Sittwe, UNHCR distributed longyi, shirts, trousers and slippers to displaced communities with support from the MHF.
By listening to them and responding to their priorities, we aim to make sure the support we provide is needed and useful.
UNHCR Myanmar retweeted
By mid-2026, partners had reached 3.1M people across #Myanmar with life-saving assistance.
With 4 months remaining, the response was 47% funded.
Increased funding and safer access can help extend critical support to millions still in need.

In Myanmar, humanitarian needs can change quickly and so must the response.
During a recent visit to Sittwe, representatives from the Australian Embassy met displaced and stateless communities and learned more about the challenges they face, as well as how UNHCR is responding.
Australia’s humanitarian support gives UNHCR the ability to respond as the situation changes and direct assistance to where it is needed most.
Thank you, @DFAT for the support that helps us stay responsive to the people we serve.
Seasonal flooding has repeatedly damaged the homes and shelters of displaced families in Kachin.
With support from the MHF, UNHCR is helping families repair and restore their homes, creating safer places to live and rebuilding hope for the future.
Restoring homes. Restoring hope.

In displacement sites where electricity is often unavailable, solar lamps become part of daily life. Distributed through UNHCR’s core relief item kits in Kachin State, they provide reliable light—helping families feel safer after dark and navigate daily life away from home.
Displacement changes the meaning of shelter. It becomes something temporary but essential, offering protection through repeated displacement and long months of rain.
For families in Kayin State, displacement is no longer a one-time event but a cycle of packing, moving, and starting over again.
Through our partners, UNHCR is delivering essential assistance to displaced communities, helping make repeated displacement a little less disruptive.
Behind every humanitarian response are partnerships that make protection possible.
On 🇨🇭Switzerland's National Day, UNHCR Myanmar thanks the people and Government of Switzerland for their support to displaced communities across Myanmar. @SwissHumAidUnit @SwissDevCoop
