Who we are
In late 2017, a group of social researchers with over ten years of experience in social and market research noticed that there was a gap in improving research capacity especially in research industry in Myanmar. On the other hand, the social enterprise model was in the infancy stage in the country. As a result, they got an idea of establishing a research company focused on capacity building based on the social enterprise model. It was the birth of the Thuta Nyana Company Ltd – a registered research services and consultancy company in mid 2019.
Founders of Thuta Nyana Company Ltd have rich survey project experiences in public health, agriculture, livelihood, micro-finance, governance, education, disaster risk reduction, impact assessment and so forth with the research clients from UN agencies, INGOs, LNGOs and Multi-International companies across the Myanmar by using qualitative and quantitative methods.
