Stories of Impact
“Once a migrant worker, now being part of the Get Engaged global community gives me a sense of belonging and trains me to lead a youth-initiative project from the ideation stage to the action plan, and from individual start-up to the team-building stage."

Your Impact
Quality Higher Education
International education is not accessible to many students in the global south due to national boundaries, immobility, financial constraints, and access requirements. We at Parami make globally recognized liberal arts education accessible to youth from diverse communities, particularly from displaced, migrant, and refugee communities, by administering a flexible admission system, strong local partnerships and generous need-based financial aid.
Our licensing with the Higher Education Licensure Commission (HELC) in Washington D.C. and dual-degree partnership with Bard College, US, ensure that Parami graduates receive quality higher education and globally competitive degrees to help them advance their career goals.
Scholarships support students such as Kyi Lae Lae Moe who is a migrant student in a town on the Thai-Burma border. Students from migrant communities face significant challenges in pursuing higher education due to structural barriers in conventional university admissions - such as legal documentation, education credentials, financial needs, and family obligations. We tailor our admissions system to minimize these structural barriers and enable students like Kyi to access high-quality, recognized higher education.
“Receiving a full scholarship from Parami University holds a great significance for me. It enables me to pursue my education in spite of financial difficulties. Additionally, I don't have to navigate the complex paperwork for admissions and financial aid, which is a significant relief for me because it can be risky as a migrant student to secure necessary legal documents.”
- Kyi Lae Lae Moe, Class of 2027
