Adapt Peacebuilding and its partners have been implementing civil society-led peacebuilding programs in Myanmar since 2013. Up until 2021, these took place in the context of a national peace process between the Myanmar military and ethnic armed groups, which  struggled to respond the everyday concerns of conflict-affected people. 

This program builds upon Systemic Action Research (SAR) methodology, which is a localised and adaptive approach to sustainable systems change in contexts of structural violence. This program has impacted tens of thousands of people since its inception and achieved a range of notable successes in support of conflict affected people. and been used to advance the claims of conflict affected people in the country’s peace and democracy processes. This program was awarded USAID’s CLA prize in 2018. More information about this program is available via the links below.
