Our Vision

Scholars to Scholars (S2S) Scholarship aims to establish a sustainable, resilient, and scholar-led scholarship program that provides both financial assistance and mentorship to domestic university students with the goal of fostering academic excellence, leadership, and long-term national development. The scholarship will be governed by international scholarship holders, ensuring transparency, accountability, fairness, and shared ownership.

Scholarship recipients are encouraged to give back by mentoring, volunteering, or contributing financially, once they have established their careers. In doing so, each generation of scholars helps create opportunities for the next generation through S2S Myanmar.

A clean, modern workspace with two open laptops facing each other across a light birch desk, separated by a small potted plant with vivid green leaves. Between the laptops lies a printed scholarship application form covered in neatly highlighted sections, next to color-coded sticky notes and a simple black pen. Through the large window behind, a distant cityscape of Yangon-style mid-rise buildings and scattered pagoda silhouettes appears softly out of focus. Diffused morning light bathes the scene, creating a professional yet encouraging mood. Captured from a slightly elevated angle in photographic realism, with a balanced composition that emphasizes collaboration, mentorship, and structured support for Myanmar students pursuing scholarships.

Why is S2S Myanmar needed?

Today, many public university students in Myanmar face notable barriers to pursuing higher education due to:

  • Internal conflicts and frequent natural disasters
  • Displacement from their homes
  • Financial hardship that affects their families
  • Rising inflation and increasing education and living costs
  • Limited access to scholarship programs locally

According to UNICEF, around 3.5 million school-age children were out of school (nearly 20 percent of the child population), and the educational deficit stresses the country’s future growth for many sectors. While facing grave risks to higher-quality education, those who have worked tirelessly to reach university still struggle to continue their studies due to financial challenges and a lack of mentorship, which prevents them from reaching their full potential. These students need our support now more than ever.

Our Programs

Launching in 2027

A bulletin board covered in carefully pinned items: a printed university acceptance letter, a world map with Myanmar prominently centered, small color photographs of campus buildings, and neatly arranged index cards with handwritten goals implied by their layout but not legible. Below, a tidy desk holds a closed laptop, a stack of scholarship brochures, and a pair of simple reading glasses. Soft, overcast window light creates gentle, even illumination with minimal shadows, evoking clarity and reflection. Shot straight-on with sharp focus throughout in photographic realism, the composition uses the rule of thirds to highlight the board as a visual roadmap of opportunity, representing the structured guidance and expanded horizons offered by the S2S scholarship program.

Need-based scholarships that cover key university costs, prioritizing students from underserved regions and communities across Myanmar.

Peer and alumni mentorship connecting local scholars with guidance on academics, leadership, and future opportunities through interactive webinars and group sessions.
