Name	Description	Comments	Due
DFM Myanmar Online library	Relevant local sources should be listed in an online library using the shared DFM Zotero project database. An English-language abstract and/or translated title should be provided for each item. Digital resources should be attached to the library items where available. Particularly significant print resources should be digitized and included in the library.	2022-02-09: The final version of the consumption survey contains a bibliography with seven references. DFM Myanmar Consumption report_4 Nov_BB_Final.docx 2021-05: Steven Smeltz added citations to DFM Myanmar literature review. We have 33 here altogether, which should be gathered into a single collection. Note these are actually international sources, rather than local ones. 2021-08-06: Currently there is only one reference in the Zotero library	2020-03-15
DFM Myanmar MPLSC dataset and preliminary analysis	Should provide an analysis of the cleaning/processing and basic data from the World Bank's 2015 Myanmar Poverty and Living Conditions Survey (MPLCS). Should include copies of the clean dataset(s). Should provide evidence to support academic publications on the contributions of dried fish to nutrition in Myanmar.	2022-02-10: Postpone asking about this until we know if AIT students will use the dataset. 2021-08-06: Status unknown. Datasets may already be available with NAG?	2020-03-20
DFM Myanmar consumption survey	The report should be 20-40 pages in length. Should report the results of a short survey on the type, frequency, and volume of dried fish product consumption, as administered by NAG through its field offices in Myanmar. Should include both a summary of quantitative data and an analysis highlighting significant evidence.	2022-03-02: Converted to PDF; generated cover; uploaded summary to WordPress. @waewinkhaing Thanks for the summary! Dried Fish consumption in Myanmar_Summary.docx 2022-02-11: @waewinkhaing -- please create a synopsis of this report for the DFM blog. We need around 200-300 words of text, and one or two images. It can be written like a press release, identifying the people who were involved in preparing the reports, the key findings (maybe as a list of bullet points?), and a summary of why/to whom the report will be valuable. Please attach the synopsis file to this card as an attachment. Thanks! 2022-02-07: Wae Win states this integrates the Literature Review. This is the FINAL draft. DFM Myanmar Consumption report_4 Nov_BB_Final.docx 2021-10-15: Status update from Wae Win. Work on the report is continuing; a version will be presented in the e-book as Dried Fish Consumption in Myanmar; Wae Win will upload images. DFM Myanmar Consumption report_4 Nov_BB_Final.docx 2021-08-06: TODO - Eric check with Ben about finishing the report, including options for involving Si Thu. 2021-05-21: Images and text imported to wiki by Steven Smeltz. DFM Myanmar consumption survey 2021-03-18: Forwarded by Ben Belton. "I was able to ask an intern to have a first go at editing Sithu’s report on dried fish consumption in Myanmar – it still needs some refining, adding a proper introduction and conclusion, and some contextualization using secondary sources (e.g. need to compare the levels of consumption reported here with those reported elsewhere), but it is a good start."
