The Bay of Bengal Large Marine Ecosystem (BOBLME) project of the Food and Agricultural Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the Norwegian Institute for Water Research (NIVA) agreed on a project for improving knowledge base and enhancing capacity to address marine pollution and water quality monitoring issues in Myanmar. More specifically, NIVA experts visited Myanmar and worked together with experts from University of Yangon, Department of Chemistry, to describe the most important needs for capacity building. Significant capacity needs were identified and a plan for following up this is presented.
