After a decade of strong economic growth, the recent political setbacks coupled with the impact of the global COVID-19 pandemic, threaten Myanmar's chances of achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Furthermore, after a period of semi-civilian rule, the military takeover triggered a resumption in armed conflict. Since February 2021, 3.6 million people have been displaced, adding to the 370,000 people already displaced by conflict before 2021 (UNOCHA Myanmar Humanitarian Snapshot, December 2021). The consequences of these trends are catastrophic. Major gains over the past 10 years, namely on economic inclusion are at risk. This context, and the uncertain political situation in Myanmar is driving a simultaneous humanitarian and development crisis that threatens hard-won socio-economic gains.  These challenges have been compounded by the powerful 7.7 magnitude earthquake which struck central Myanmar on 28 March 2025, with its epicentre near Mandalay at a shallow depth of 10 km. This was followed by powerful aftershock of 6.4 magnitude shortly after. Reports indicated significant loss of life and injuries, and widespread displacement.  The earthquake caused extensive destruction of homes, community assets, and critical infrastructure. Major bridges, roads, markets, universities, hotels, heritage sites and public service facilities in urban and rural areas were severely damaged or destroyed. Large volumes of debris continue to impede movement, restrict access to communities, and slow the restoration of basic services and economic activity. Essential services, including electricity, water supply, transport networks and telecommunications, remain unstable, limiting mobility, market functioning and the resumption of public services. Thousands of households have lost productive assets, with many facing significant barriers to restarting livelihoods and income-generating activities. Local businesses, especially micro, small and medium enterprise, have been heavily affected, with damaged premises, disrupted supply chains, and limited access to finance, constraining their ability to resume operations. The earthquake struck in locations already marked by conflict, displacement, and weakened systems, further compounding vulnerabilities but also constraining access and the delivery of assistance. Against this background, UNDP is implementing an Earthquake Response effort, aimed at restoring basic services, facilitating the early to medium-term recovery of affected communities, and laying the groundwork for local economic recovery and long-term resilience of earthquake-affected areas.    DUTIES & RESPONSIBILITIES  The Project Manager will manage the UNDP Earthquake Response Project(s).
