Burma/Karen Project

The Burma/Karen Project was created in response to the surge of requests for information and  training about Burma and ethnic groups such as the Karen, who make up the bulk of the Southeast Asia refugee population in the Ithaca area.

In addition to presentations and professional development workshops, we offer educational resources on Burma and its many ethnic groups through our Lending Library, downloadable children’s books in Karen, and various Burma/Myanmar culture kits that include artifacts and cultural objects for use by teachers, faculty, and community organizations.
