In Myanmar today, millions of young people are ‘on hold’ — unable to learn, work, or build their futures. This second report in UNDP’s Myanmar Youth Series, following A Generation on the Move, examines the broken pathways from education to employment. Drawing on the voices of more than 7,000 youth nationwide, the findings show that one in four is not employed and three in four aged 18–24 are out of school or training, with young women facing the steepest barriers. The report offers data-driven insights to inform programmes that can unlock the potential of Myanmar’s next generation.
