Part of our assignment is also to report statistics and disseminate information about our operations.
Our work is financed by tax money and we administer approximately half of Sweden’s total development aid budget. The other part is channelled through the ministry for Foreign Affairs. All our work should be performed in a cost-effective way with a strong focus on results.

Ta'ang Student and Youth Organization
In 1963, the Palaung State Liberation Party (PSLP) started to fight for self-determination and equal rights for the Ta'ang (Palaung) people. In 1991, they made a cease-fire with the Burmese regime. However, some PSLP leaders who were dissatisfied did not accept the cease-fire agreement and formed the Palaung State Liberation Front (PSLF) in the Karen area in Manaplaw in 1992.
Some of the PSLF members wanted to support Ta’ang youth, and established the Palaung Students and Youth Organization (PSYO) on the Thai-Burma border in 1993. The name was changed to the Palaung Youth Network Group (PYNG) during the second meeting on 27 December, 1998.
In March 2007, the first Congress of PYNG was successfully held in a liberated area on the Thai-Burma border. The Congress elected 7 Executive Committee members to lead the first Congressional term of PYNG by secret ballot through a democratic voting system.
In December 2008, the second Congress of PYNG changed the name of the organization to Ta'ang Students and Youth Organization (TSYO). While Palaung is a Burmese term, Ta’ang is our own term, in our language. During this Congress, we also changed the structure of our organization from a Coordinator system to a Secretary system. By secret ballot, the Congress elected 7 Executive Committee members to lead the second term of TSYO.
During our third Congress in December 2010, we held elections for Executive Committee and Secretary Positions, and reviewed our departments, programs, and Constitution. After thorough consideration, we expanded our Executive Committee from 9 to 11 members in order to strengthen the leadership of our programs and organization.
Background of the Ta'ang people
- The Ta'ang (Palaung) people are one of the indigenous nationalities within the multi-national Union of Burma, descended from Mon-Khmer.
- The Ta'ang people have their own language and literature, a distinctive traditional culture, their own territory, and a self-sufficient economy.
- When people think about tea in Burma, one community springs to mind: the Ta'ang. Tea is the backbone of the economy and is famous throughout the region as the product of the Ta'ang people.
- The Ta’ang (Palaung) population is over one million, and most lives in the mountains of the northwestern Shan State. But large numbers also live in towns throughout the Southern and Eastern Shan State.
MISSION
TSYO’s mission is to work for peace, justice and equality, to build a democratic country, and to improve the lives of our students, youth, and all Ta’ang people.
GOALS
- To work for peace, and to develop the Ta'ang region.
- To increase the number of Ta'ang youth who can participate as leaders.
- To promote gender equality.

- To build a federal democratic country with national equality and self-determination.
ORGANIZATIONAL OBJECTIVES
·To promote the capacity of Ta'ang students and youth by working on capacity building training.
·To cooperate with democratic organizations, national revolution movements, international youth and women's organizations, and our Ta’ang people for the shared struggle to bring about positive change in Burma.
·To preserve and promote traditional Ta’ang culture and literature.
·To reduce the growth, trade, and use of opium and other drugs in the Ta’ang region.
·To provide education on, and increase public awareness of, health care through peer education in the Ta’ang region.
·To advocate to the international community and alliance groups to reduce human rights violations in the Ta'ang region.
·To protect natural resources and the environment in the Ta’ang region.

TED
TED is a nonprofit devoted to spreading ideas, usually in the form of short, powerful talks (18 minutes or less). TED began in 1984 as a conference where Technology, Entertainment and Design converged, and today covers almost all topics — from science to business to global issues — in more than 100 languages. Meanwhile, independently run TEDx events help share ideas in communities around the world.
Our Mission: Spread ideas
TED is a global community, welcoming people from every discipline and culture who seek a deeper understanding of the world. We believe passionately in the power of ideas to change attitudes, lives and, ultimately, the world. On TED.com, we're building a clearinghouse of free knowledge from the world's most inspired thinkers — and a community of curious souls to engage with ideas and each other, both online and at TED and TEDx events around the world, all year long.
In fact, everything we do — from our Conferences to our TED Talks to the projects sparked by the TED Prize, from the global TEDx community to the TED-Ed lesson series — is driven by this goal: How can we best spread great ideas?
TED is owned by a nonprofit, nonpartisan foundation. Our agenda is to make great ideas accessible and spark conversation.
