After decades of repressive military rule, Myanmar has arrived at a new political phase. One of the accomplishments of this new era is the formation of the Yangon School of Political Science by Zin Mar Aung, a political activist. The school offers systematic teaching of Political Sciences in order to educate new generations in politics and thereby shape politically well-informed citizens. Since its opening in 2011, the school has trained more than 400 people in political science, political transition and international relations. To find out what is the best way to teach politics and open the doors to a political career, also watch our episodes on studying politics in Germany (http://youtu.be/6DzUiTBtSi8) and Argentina (http://youtu.be/IoR6UKfLCcg Argentina) Learning World is brought to you by euronews: http://www.euronews.com/learning-world SUBSCRIBE to get more videos from WISE: http://www.youtube.com/WISEQatar?sub_confirmation=1 World Innovation Summit for Education (WISE) is an international, multi-sectoral and action-oriented platform for innovation in education that connects innovators, nurtures new ideas, and recognizes and supports successful initiatives that are helping revitalize education.
