sessions, demonstrating strong interest from the youth community. Due to logistical limitations, only around 40 percent of registered participants could be accepted. Despite these challenges, BPN remains committed to collaborating with diverse and talented youth groups to support them in launching their own podcast shows that reflect their backgrounds and communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Burma Podcast Network was born out of a love for audio storytelling and the classic radio dramas of Myanmar\u2019s past. In 2025, BPN shared practical podcasting knowledge and lessons with 80 young people from media, activist, human rights defender, and advocacy groups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, Burma Podcast Network hosts 16 podcast series in collaboration with researchers, award-winning journalists, poets, authors, artists, mental health specialists, landmine advocacy organizations, gender-based violence awareness institutions, and media freedom and human rights groups. Some series are limited, while others continue on an ongoing basis. All are produced with care to inspire positive social impact and foster dialogue grounded in respect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-button-background-background-color has-background wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/burmapodcast.network\/my\/about\/\">Learn More about BPN <\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Together with Peacock Film Festival x DVB Podcast In both 2024 and 2025, the DVB Peacock Film Festival organizing team invited Burma Podcast Network (BPN) to host the Podcast Lab experimental sessions for filmmakers and media professionals.
