This assessment, conducted in the Ayeyarwady and Yangon Divisions from 10 to 19 June 2008, is significant in the cooperation of humanitarian and development actors to bring together relief, early recovery and longer-term recovery in one assessment, and the role of ASEAN in the humanitarian field. A comprehensive methodology was used to estimate humanitarian needs, damage to assets, changes in economic flows, and impacts on social and economic conditions. The estimates were based on information collected by the joint assessment teams during field surveys in the aftermath of the disaster. The assessment consisted of two components – the Village Tract Assessment (VTA) focusing on humanitarian needs, and the Damage and Loss Assessment (DALA) focusing on damage and losses.
