Since the official dissolution of the ruling military junta in 2011, the government of Burma has launched an extensive programme of liberalisation and democratisation. An important part of this programme has been increasing internationalisation, which has led to many development agencies, national governments and universities bringing forward proposals to aid in the improvement of education in Burma in a variety of ways.
Education is one of Burma’s main development priorities. Over the last two years, a number of initiatives have opened the debate on the role and the future of education in the country.
