Based on the Vulnerability Index developed in this review, an estimated 22.7 million persons in Myanmar, or 44% of the population, were found to have some form of vulnerability related to human development and/or exposure to active conflict/violence. These people experience varying combinations of p...oor housing, lack of education, poor educational attainment, lack of access to safe sanitation and improved drinking water, and direct exposure to conflict.
Shan and Ayeyarwady have the largest populations of vulnerable persons, a function of both their size and relative vulnerability in comparison to other States and Regions. Yangon and Shan show the widest variation in vulnerability across townships (in terms of the number of vulnerable persons and their level of vulnerability), followed by Mandalay, Chin and Rakhine.

Складні події останніх років в Україні накладають відбиток на всіх нас. Психологи кваліфікують їх як екстремальні, а емоційну відповідь на них називають «травмати...чним стресом». Нічого ненормального в цьому немає, адже це нормальні реакції на ненормальні події (тобто такі, що виходять за рамки звичного людського досвіду). Страждають від травматичного стресу не лише безпосередні учасники подій, а й ті, хто постійно живе в тривозі, напрузі, спостерігаючи за подіями в ЗМІ або переживаючи за близьких, які можуть бути в небезпеці. Це стосується і дітей. Навіть не розуміючи дета- лей того, що відбувається навколо, вони бачать напруженість і страх батьків, чують тривожні висловлювання. Тому, вірогідно, дітям може знадобитися допомога у відновленні рівноваги. Адже саме дорослі — чи не єдине джерело спокою для них. Ми виклали кілька порад, як поводитися в склад- них ситуаціях і навчитися розуміти себе і своїх дітей. Сподіваємося, вони стануть вам у пригоді.
