3. Why youth?
Building a peaceful future and
sustainable development
essentially need to include youth
in decision making.
Youth are a significant population bearing a window of opportunity for
the country. However, currently in Myanmar, youth are not very much
included in decision making for the future, either in politics,
peacebuilding or economic decision making.

4. Board of Directors
With young professionals, SEEED
for Myanmar is steered towards the
goal of including youth in decision
making process at all levels.

5. Why ecosystem approach?
At SEED for Myanmar, we see the
development as an ecosystem. This
allows us to see the complexity as
well as the interactions of parts of
the ecosystem.
