The National Sustainable Development Strategy (NSDS) for Myanmar has been prepared to provide a strategic long‐term framework for sustainable development. The National Commission for Environmental Affairs (NCEA) has taken a lead in developing the NSDS in consultation with concerned Line Ministries and relevant organizations. The Myanmar NSDS is formulated to meet its global commitment made at the Johannesburg Plan of Implementation in 2002. Following the request of the government, UNEP has provided assistance in preparation of the NSDS.
