Initiative Ideas
A young female original from Maungdaw, Rakhine State, founded YCBC in September 2018. The main reason that YCBC was formed was due to the inner depression of the Founder and the political instability in Rakhine State since 2012 as she had experienced many difficulties in obtaining economic pathways and higher education. After her personal experience, she developed an idea to make it easier for young people and vulnerable communities of the new generation to easily enhance their abilities in the future without experiencing the challenges she faced. Moreover, YCBC was built up in bonding with interested alumni when she shared the idea with the participants when she attended the class at the Strategic Planning For Change in Yangon.

The Journey

The two Co-Founders and Founder were committed and decided to establish a non-profit youth organization for underprivileged youth around Myanmar in September 2018.
