Organizations Filed Purposes:
At Partners Asia, we build relationships with innovative organizers in these communities and with international donors, bridging the gap between local leaders and global resources.
Partners Asia supports community initiatives to improve the lives of the most vulnerable among the people of Myanmar. Many of these people live in unstable areas within Myanmar and along its borders, where they are at risk of displacement and exploitation. (continued p.2)
Myanmar (Burma) Program: Partners Asia worked with local groups and informal networks of community organizations all around Myanmar (Burma), implementing projects with the shared goal of strengthening civil society among the most marginalized. Opportunities, risks, and needs vary greatly in different communities, so Partners Asia backs trusted local partners who identify appropriate solutions, with projects addressing formal and non-formal education, women and child health, gender equality, village infrastructure, and legal rights for the disadvantaged. Partners Asia also funded community-led research, supported network building, and offered training and one-on-one assistance to help partners take their organizations to the next level.
Thailand Program: Partners Asia directly engaged local leaders and community-based organizations all along the Thailand-Myanmar border and migrants in urban centers. As in Myanmar, opportunities, risks, and needs differ depending on community. In Thailand, Partners Asias partners worked with people who fled poverty and/or fighting in Myanmar, tailoring projects given their unique local knowledge that include: formal and non-formal schooling for Myanmar and stateless children; humanitarian emergency support to communities severely affected by fighting; assistance for migrants to obtain work permits and legal documentation; free medical care for poor migrants unrecognized as refugees. Partners Asia offers individual support to local group leaders to improve programs and operations, and is building networks across the border into Myanmar.
Gender Equality: Inclusion, human rights, and justice for all.Our Gender Program aims to strengthen the positions of women and LGBTQIs within their communities and encourage their aspirations, while promoting tolerance and respect. Our multi-pronged approach includes grants addressing immediate needs, mentorship for emerging leaders, networking opportunities, and communications training. This support better enables women and LGBTQIs to engage with the Myanmar government and international human rights mechanisms to raise awareness and advocate for their rights. Our direct grants also support the establishment of women's savings groups, access to digital financial services, family planning, and more.
