Supporting Myanmar students to access higher education
Education scholarships for young people from marginalized communities in Myanmar. Learn about our programs and how to apply.
At Prospect Burma, we know there are many barriers preventing Myanmar's young people from accessing higher education.

We have two scholarship application periods:
