Last year Thaw Thaw was sent to us for a 3-month internship. That finished last December, however she was extremely excited when we offered her a two-year traineeship!


Thaw Thaw grew up in the capital of Myanmar (Yangon) with her family. Just after she graduated from school, the military undertook a violent coup blocking off the city. Along with other youth Thaw Thaw trained underground for six weeks learning how to fight back against their oppressors. From there she escaped from the city and began training with and working alongside the Freedom Army fighters in the jungle for over twelve months. After that year, the army leader believed she was too 
young to continue in that lifestyle and so sent her to MaeSot to live in a youth dorm to finish her year 1 and 12 studies. 

Now she has joined the HYD team as a trainee and we have seen her face completely change from looking solemn to now being full of joy and being passionate about what she is doing! She is now excited to have the opportunity to fulfil her dream of having her own mini-mart/food shop in the future!
