Abstract

This report provides a comprehensive overview of the major trends that defined Myanmar’s peace process and security landscape in 2019. The Myanmar Institute for Peace and Security (MIPS) Conflict Monitoring & Analysis initiative is an ongoing effort to thoroughly monitor and record conflict and peace-related events. MIPS identifies key trends in peace and conflict as they emerge, informing stakeholders of impending risk, as well as prospective opportunities for engagement and dialogue. The annual report includes “Monthly Peace & Security Brief” providing details for each month (12 editions). In mid-March 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic put a firm halt to talks among the government, Tatmadaw, Nationwide Ceasefire Agreement (NCA) signatories, and non-ceasefire groups.
