Amidst the difficulties experienced in working incountry, ABM continues to raise funds and seek support from Australian Anglicans as preparation for the time when the situation becomes more favourable in Myanmar. In this ongoing work with the Church in Myanmar, ABM seeks to strengthen its capacity to undertake community development which aids poverty reduction. In the past, ABM has conducted workshops designed to build capacity within the church.
