The Multicultural Myanmar Collaboratory (MMC) creates a safe, unfettered space for scholars, cultural creators, writers and civil society actors to research, document, preserve, share, teach about, and engage freely as active participants in the intellectual and cultural life of Myanmar.

Yale-based MMC fellows will form a “hub” within a globally interconnected network of actors focused on Myanmar. We will work with a multicultural array of actors within Myanmar itself, along with our regional partners. MMC will facilitate international intellectual exchange among members of diaspora dedicated to supporting ideas, creativity, and cultural production alongside the peopole of Myanmar. MMC's events will be free and open to virtual participation by groups within Myanmar who will contribute to and benefit from curriculum development, research capacity-building, and access to academic resources developed by MMC.
