Our Background
Welcome to Meikswe Myanmar, a beacon of hope and resilience in the heart of Southeast Asia. Established in 2004, Meikswe Myanmar (MM) was born out of a profound commitment to addressing the healthcare needs of vulnerable populations, specifically women, children, and individuals living with HIV/AIDS in Myanmar.
In its infancy, MM focused on providing essential residential care for women with HIV/AIDS in the Northern Shan State. As the years unfolded, so did the organization’s scope of work, expanding beyond healthcare to encompass a holistic approach to community development.
Over time, MM’s journey led to the introduction of educational programs, emergency support initiatives for communities affected by disasters or conflict, and capacity-building projects for local organizations engaged in community development. Today, our footprint extends across diverse regions, including Rakhine State, Yangon, East Shan State, and the Moken islands.
Since 2009, MM has been at the forefront of Civil Society Organization (CSO) strengthening activities through advocacy and capacity-building efforts. Our focus on grassroots-level communities is intentional, empowering them to advocate for themselves and present their needs effectively to governments.
