It has been six months since the powerful 7.7 magnitude earthquake struck central Myanmar on 28 March 2025.The devastating quake caused widespread damage to homes, schools, health centres, and public infrastructure across Mandalay and Sagaing regions.

Among them are more than 3.5 million people displaced from their homes, further deepening the crisis. From Day 1, we acted swiftly—restoring access to clean water and sanitation to prevent disease outbreaks, providing food and cash assistance to address food insecurity and urgent needs, offering protection services including mental health and psychosocial support for women and children, delivering shelter assistance to displaced families, and supporting livelihood recovery through VisionFund.
