Under the new agreement, the two countries will “cooperate to develop programs for the teaching of the Holocaust and its lessons of the negative consequences of intolerance, racism, Anti-Semitism and xenophobia as a part of the school curriculum in the Republic of the Union of Myanmar.”
The two countries will encourage the development of other joint projects in the field of education, including encounters between educators and young people from both countries.
