About Us

About Su Way Yar

Su Way Yar (meaning “A Gathering Place” in Burmese) is a youth-led organization founded in 2025 by passionate young people who met through the Myanmar YMCA’s SDSYE Youth Camps.

We created Su Way Yar as a vibrant, welcoming space where like-minded youth can learn, connect, and grow together.
