"In Myanmar, migrants, mobility impacted communities and host communities face several challenges affecting their access to health care services. These barriers are due to poor access to information and knowledge, lack of accessibility to health care facilities, discrimination, financial, logistical, linguistic and cultural barriers and weak referral mechanisms between services in origin and destination areas. For more than 10 years, IOM Myanmar has been working with the Ministry of Health and Sports (MOHS), State and Township Health Authorities and Communities and partners to develop and deliver extensive and comprehensive health programming with a focus on HIV, TB and malaria; maternal and child health, sexual reproductive health and rights, gender based violence (GBV); and health system strengthening, including cross border health and the migration dimension in humanitarian crises. IOM works to strengthen state and township level planning and capacity in the delivery of migrant health through engagement of private entities and linking private-public partnerships as well as capacity building of private and public health staff. For example, IOM values partnerships with existing ethnic health organisations (EHOs), civil society organisations (CSOs) and local NGOs, women’s organisations, youth volunteers and men’s groups and communities to expand access to outreach services and conduct information sessions and prevention activities. Moreover, the Migration Health Unit has worked to strengthen referral mechanisms through migrant voucher systems and the revitalisation of Village Tract Health Committees (VTHC), provision of essential medicines and supplies, minor refurbishment of health facilities and the establishment of migrant resource centres/service centres at border areas and special economic zone areas.
