With application season approaching, scholars from Burma can benefit from support and assistance in crafting successful applications. Different applications for different programs require significantly different narratives (undergraduate and Masters want a life story / future trajectory, whereas a PhD only wants a description of the academic project, etc). We have designed a simple form to link up applicants with mentors. Please sign up at this link:

This initiative fits into BSG’s broader effort to design collaborations and provide resources for underserved scholars, with a focus on making Burma studies knowledge production more collaborative and less extractive than it has been in the past. We have a Collaborations and Resources page on our website devoted to this project, with other projects in development.
