Prospect Burma CIO is a UK-based charity that supports Myanmar students and communities through education as a pathway to long-term peacebuilding and social change. Its core giving is highly targeted: scholarships for Myanmar learners to study at international universities or accredited online programs, plus partner-led post-high-school education in hard-to-reach or conflict-affected areas. It also invests in alumni-led training, networking, and community interventions, suggesting a strong preference for building local leadership and practical capacity rather than one-off charitable relief.
Primarily program-based and targeted, with annual scholarship cycles for in-person and online study; post-high-school projects are invite-only through trusted partners, and alumni support is geared toward follow-on, locally driven initiatives. Grants appear to be small-to-moderate in scale relative to full scholarship costs, with support tailored to tuition, travel, living expenses, and program-specific educational needs.

Watch the annual scholarship windows closely: in-person applications run 1 Dec–31 Jan and online applications run 1 Apr–31 May. Partner project funding is invite-only, so organizations should build relationships with Prospect Burma and demonstrate trusted local reach, strong educational outcomes, and relevance to conflict-affected or marginalized Myanmar communities.
