Resource
Centre (RC) plays a vital role in providing
information and sharing resources among its
partners and members of the Food Security
Working Group (FSWG). In addition, RC
promotes the affiliation between its members
and associates by assembling frequent
technical exchange gatherings and
occasionally arranges capacity building
activities.
The following activities are carried out in
order to establish mechanisms in addressing
food security issues.
• Set up a
Resource Centre, inform and share available
resources mainly in Sustainable Agriculture
(SA), Community Forestry (CF) and other food
security related issues.
• Publish quarterly FSWG newsletter
in English to provide updated news and
events of FSWG projects, as well as the
half-yearly FSWG newsletter in Myanmar,
mainly for project beneficiaries across the
country.
• Develop and disseminate
Information, Education and Communication (IEC)
materials to a larger audience at grassroots
level through effective dissemination of
partners and members organizations.
• Strengthen local resource centers (LRC),
also known as network or information houses.
Technology development and information flow
should be maintained between centers within
Yangon and local users. However, in the
present time, LRC cannot be instituted in
rural areas, although plans have been made
for the future.
• Develop, maintain and update FSWG
website and make it available for all
stakeholders locally and internationally.
• Organize regular technical exchange
sessions (technical seminars) amongst INGO,
LNGO, UN agencies, interested groups and
individuals.
Resource
Centre is creating network, technology and
information exchange opportunities between
its partners and members in support of
better partnership in implementing food
security activities of Myanmar.
