By Grace Dubois | Senior Programme Officer
Through the help of our Education for All project, Elizabeth has been given the opportunity to study for a university degree in medical laboratory technology, a vital medical discipline that is lacking in western Myanmar.
Having grown up in an orphanage she is grateful for the opportunity to receive an education and is looking forward to using it to serve her community. Elizabeth is undertaking her internship year in Myanmar and is due to graduate in August 2019.
“My future plans have not changed since I first had this opportunity to study. Chin State in western Myanmar is an area which is under-developed because of its geography and difficult history. We need to inspire the people and provide education on health as well as on the prevention of disease. By cooperating with communities, we can share knowledge and improve lives. We need the participation of the rural people themselves to meet the needs of their own communities. It is my future plan to serve the people in Chin State and I pray and hope I can share the knowledge I have learnt throughout my studies with my people when I return.”
With your help, Elizabeth and many others like her are on track to receive further education equipping them to serve their own communities in the future
