48 participants from Germany and Myanmar
In the workshop series, the recent transformation processes in megacity Yangon/Myanmar, have been addressed and critically evaluated. Several research papers addressed the recent infrastructural, economic and social transformation processes, its challenges and possible options for improvement and upgrading. Based on recent Master Plan propositions from international donors as well as on own research within Myanmar institutions over the past about five years, different concepts and visions of future development were discussed intensively, in paper sessions and workshop round table discussions. One further workshop in early 2014 will conclude the series and will lead to an international book publication.
