Looking to the future, there are growing concerns that without decisive and coordinated action, Inle Lake could undergo irreversible ecological collapse.
This report serves not only as a record of the impacts caused by the September 2024 flood and the March 2025 earthquake in the Inle region, but also as a call to action—urging both the reconstruction of resilient infrastructure and the rehabilitation of the lake’s fragile ecosystem. It has been developed to guide the formulation of a cohesive and realistic recovery and restoration plan. It seeks to provide an evidence-based framework for action that addresses both the immediate needs and long-term resilience of the Inle Lake region, ensuring that future development is both environmentally sustainable and socially inclusive.
The evidence and recommendations herein are intended to support the design of effective, high-impact donor programs that can protect Inle Lake’s unique ecosystem, enhance community resilience, and ensure sustainable livelihoods.
This is a collaborative effort by a dedicated team of impact assessment consultants and subject experts, working under the leadership of the Board of Directors of E Guard Environmental Services Co., Ltd
