- **Event Name**: Withering hopes: Exploring the migration decisions and experiences of Myanmar youth
- **Event Start and End Date**: Mon, 17 Nov, 2025 at 10:00 am
- **Event Description**: [Free and open to all.]

This study examines the migration decisions, lived experience and aspirations of Myanmar youth who moved to Mae Sot, Thailand, after the February 2021 military coup. Based on interviews with 29 youths and 3 key informants, the report highlights fear of violence, political instability, disrupted education and economic hardship as major drivers of migration.

In Mae Sot, these youths face challenges such as a lack of legal documentation, limited access to education and stable jobs, language barriers and discrimination. Despite these difficulties, they express hopes for a democratic, federal, and peaceful Myanmar, while fearing safety risks and the possibility of military conscription upon return.

The report calls for comprehensive support systems for returning migrant youth when there is peace in Myanmar, including vocational training, mental health services and reconciliation initiatives. Their voices reflect a strong desire for transparent governance and an inclusive society free from fear and conflict.
