Books Beyond Borders Begins
In the first phase of Books Beyond Borders, Better Burma provided essential learning materials to 300 refugee students in Khaikhy and Lopu Camps in Mizoram.

The education kits helped them return to class prepared, easing pressure on displaced families while giving students renewed encouragement to continue learning.
A Path Toward Self-Reliance
