The Anawrahta Leadership University Project had its beginnings in the formation of Anawrahta Leadership Academy in 2017. Since that time up to the present, 13 courses on leadership training have been conducted producing 800 monks some of whom are abbots, and others are graduate prospective abbots. The Leadership Academy is, in effect, the forerunner of the Leadership University which aims to further develop the leadership capacity of the monks and to produce highly qualified devoted Samaneras and monks for the perpetuation of the Buddha’s Sasana in the future. It is intended to complete the university construction in ten years. The university will produce many highly qualified leader-monks who will nurture a new generation of extremely talented Samaneras and monks who can lead in the propagation of the Buddha’s Sasana.
