Name of Leader U Tin Aung Swe Background The YMCA, Young Men's Christian Association, is a Voluntary, International, Christian, Ecumenical movement that strives to reect the cultural identity of the Nation in which it exists and serves. First started in London by a group of young men, the YMCA concept spread rapidly to every continent of the world. Today, there are YMCAs in 128 countries and they are united under the World Alliance of YMCAs that has its headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland. YMCAs have been established in twenty-seven countries and territories in Asia and Pacic under the umbrella of the Asia and Pacic Alliance of YMCAs, the ofce of which is located in Hong Kong. The YMCAs in Myanmar started as early as 1897 in Rangoon. As it was started during the British regime, most of the YMCA programs were to serve the British communities. Almost all the leaders at that time were European. The early part of the YMCA movement was based on YMCA traditional programs such as hostel programs, sports and recreation programs and educational programs. Some of the early YMCAs were too much westernized and eventually strayed away from the local communities. One of the local YMCAs was totally disintegrated as it was empha-sizing too much on western culture. The hostel programs cre-ated a lot of legal problems and could not serve the urban young people as intended. Sports and recreation pro-grams served only a minority. Only people who could afford attended the YMCA educational classes.The National Leadership started around 1940s before independence. The Mandalay YMCA and Taunggyi YMCA were also established. Then Pyin Oo Lwin YMCA and Myitkyina YMCA followed. The National Council of YMCAs was started in 1951 with leaders from Taunggyi, Yangon, Pyin Oo Lwin, Mandalay and Myitkyina. Mission 1. Working for equal opportunity for both men and women and to work for the development of the whole person in all p rograms and agendas. 2. Empowering all, especially young people and women to take increased responsibility and assume leadership at all levels and working toward an equitable society. 3. Advocating for and promoting the Right of Women and upholding the Right of Children. 4. Fostering dialogue and partnership between people of different faiths and ideologies and recognizing the cultural identities of people and promoting cultural renewal. 5. Committing to work in solidarity with the poor, dispossessed, uprooted people and oppressed racial, religious and ethnic minorities.
