Vulnerability Profile of Myanmar

Document Summary: 
This report presents the vulnerability profile of Myanmar, as mandated in General Assembly resolution 59/209 of 20 December 2004, which stated that ¡°after a country has fulfilled the criteria for graduation for the first time, Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµCTAD is mandated to prepare a vulnerability profile on the identified country to be considered by the Committee for Development Policy (CDP) at its following triennial review¡± (paragraph 3 (b)). The report aims to assist qualifying LDCs to increase their chances of achieving structural social and economic progress towards and beyond graduation from the LDC category. For Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµCTAD, this involves the provision of country-specific analytical material on the implications of graduation; vulnerability assessments and resilience-building; relevant advisory services for policymakers; and assistance to qualifying countries and LDCs in general in preparing for the global landscape they will enter after graduation. [Revised and formatted version of Vulnerability Profile presented to the CDP ahead of its 2021 Plenary session.]
