Powerful address by Wai Wai Nu to the UN General Assembly. Well done @waiwainu.bsky.social! #WhatsHappeninglnMyanmar @hrcberkeley.bsky.social

Nu also told Al Jazeera that “many member states also emphasised or highlighted addressing the root causes, and advancing justice and accountability”, in their speeches. #unga80 #Rohingya #myanmar www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/10...

🗓️ #UNGA80 SIDE EVENT: "Ending the #Rohingya crisis: Community-centered actions for protection, justice & lasting peace" Join key leaders & experts on 9/29 to mark the High-Level Conference on the Situation of #Rohingya Muslims & Other Minorities in #Myanmar 🔴LIVE: webtv.un.org/en/asset/k1k...

📰 @waiwainu.bsky.social on #Myanmar junta's sham elections: "This is not an exit strategy, this is a trap. We need to understand that this will only prolong the violence & the conflict, and the junta's disastrous strategy in the country." #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar www.abc.net.au/news/2025-09...

"'In #Rakhine State, #Rohingya and other civilians are caught in the crossfire between the #Myanmar military and the #Arakan Army and subjected to forced recruitment, human rights violations and other abuse,' the #UN Secretary-General said." news.un.org/en/story/202...

🚨"Unless more funding is received by year-end, the #IIMM will have to stop both an open-source project & one investigating sexual violence and crimes against children" says Independent Investigative Mechanism for #Myanmar on #UN funding cuts www.reuters.com/world/americ...

Lobby firm receives $3M from genocidal Junta! Despite the persistent atrocities and starvation, including mass murder and persecution of civilians like the Rohingya and Christians, some continue to profit from the Min Aung Hlaing regime. #Accountability

New evidence of alleged #AA atrocities against #Rohingya in Rakhine in 2024. The AA/ULA must facilitate entry of—& fully cooperate with—an independent int'l investigative team to Rakhine to investigate these & other alleged crimes. Perpetrators must be held accountable. #WhatsHappeningInMyanmar

WPN documented the Arakan Army's massacre of #Rohingya in Thang Shout Kan/Hoyasiri, among others, in our report ➡️ womenspeacenetwork.org/s/Report_202... For over a year, based on credible sources, we've been warning about a clear pattern of atrocities in #Rakhine State. Now is the time to act.

1/ Horrifying photos are being circulated, corroborating the Arakan Army's massacres of hundreds of #Rohingya in Thang Shout Kan (Hoyasiri) in May 2024. This reveals only a part of the atrocities over a year later. Now, Rohingya are facing total elimination in #Rakhine State.

🔊 @waiwainu.bsky.social: "We gather here today a month after the massive earthquake hit central #Burma, where the Burmese military has worsened its devastation on civilians." #Myanmar #WhatsHappeninglnMyanmar #MyanmarEarthquake

🔊 @waiwainu.bsky.social: "The military is trying to use the earthquake as an opportunity to legitimize its illegal coup leading up to its fake elections. This is the same entity that committed atrocities against ethnic & religious minorities for decades, including #Rohingya genocide."

🔊 @waiwainu.bsky.social: "As #Burma faces one of the darkest moments in our history, we ask you to stand with the country’s people now. We need a strong, smart & principled ally in ending our decades-long suffering, and winning our fight for liberty."

🗓️EVENT: #Burma: Humanitarian Crisis and Violations of Religious Freedom & Human Rights On Monday April 28, join us in a hybrid briefing on #Myanmar at the US Congress alongside @waiwainu.bsky.social, distinguished leaders, advocates, experts. ⏰12PM-2PM EST 🔗RSVP: docs.google.com/forms/d/1Cj_...

⚠️ #Myanmar junta confirms plan to hold its sham, undemocratic "elections" after earthquake. The int'l community must hold the military accountable and get it out of politics first. Relying on junta for a "political solution" will only prolong crisis. www.irrawaddy.com/news/burma/m...

🔹 @waiwainu.bsky.social, @womenspeacenetwork.org, joined the panel “Gender Justice & the Crimes Against Humanity Treaty Initiative,” highlighting the crisis in #Myanmar & the need for a victim & survivor-centered approach.

🔊 @waiwainu.bsky.social #CSW69: "Justice is not for those of us seated at this panel – but for victims and survivors. All of our actions must be for all people subjected to crimes against humanity, and be aimed at their vision of their future."

Mon: @globaljusticec.bsky.social host "Gender Justice & crimes against humanity treaty initiative" w/ @waiwainu.bsky.social & more Tues: @seajunction.bsky.social hold panel "Navigating a Troubled Funding Landscape for Development" w/ @liasciortino.bsky.social, @reaproy.bsky.social & more /3

Today,at the Security Council Report,WPN and WLB briefed UN member states on the catastrophic humanitarian situation. It is crucial for governments to resume and expand aid access for the people of Myanmar in order to address the $1 billion funding shortfall for the Myanmar & Rohingya response plan.

Our Founder and Executive Director @waiwainu.bsky.social will speak at this event, highlighting exacerbating atrocities, including sexual violence, in #Myanmar. We hope you can join us! #CSW #CSW69 #Burma #WhatsHappeninginMyanmar #Rohingya

New event! 📆17th March 🕙10am EST Join @globaljusticec.bsky.social & more for "Gender Justice & crimes against humanity treaty initiative" a #CSW69 side event w/ @waiwainu.bsky.social & more In person & Live on YT: www.youtube.com/@GlobalJusti...

1/ Regarding the Argentine #Burma UJ case, I see it as an opportunity to discuss accountability beyond the military, through int'l & domestic processes. The int'l community must support this process for all victims & survivors & take necessary action to end impunity in #Myanmar.

"'The US government is indirectly helping the junta and letting them commit heinous crimes with free hands...this is the darkest hour of our time, and we look forward to the dawn.'" @thinink.bsky.social #Burma #Myanmar #WhatsHappeninginMyanmar www.thenewhumanitarian.org/analysis/202...

This is a major advancement for justice & accountability for #Rohingya over seven years after the clearance operations & decades of genocide. Four years since the coup attempt, I hope the int'l community will take all measures to end impunity in #Myanmar. www.brouk.org.uk/argentina-co...

🗓️"Crimes Against Humanity: Upholding Sacred Rights through Legal Tools for Justice & Accountability" #IRFSummit2025 Join @waiwainu.bsky.social at #IRF Summit, where we will address worsening religious persecution in #Myanmar crisis & call for urgent #USG action. 🔗 irfsummit.org/programming/

Rohingya civilians recall alleged Arakan Army abuses: www.thenewhumanitarian.org/news-feature... (@newhumanitarian.bsky.social)

🔊 @waiwainu.bsky.social: "To donors & supporters: we need a financing stream that will enable #Rohingya to rebuild themselves." Wai Wai calls for direct & flexible funding to Rohingya civil society, over relying on INGOs, stereotype of Rohingya as only victims & not experts, exclusion of Rohingya.

Tis the weekend #MilkTeaAlliance & here is the upcoming events🧵 B4 we begin though, while a difficult listen, we recommend listening to this important session hosted by Burmese Rohingya Organisation UK “the genocide never stopped” w/ @waiwainu.bsky.social @akilarad.bsky.social & more. 1/

New event! (Short notice) 📆23rd Jan 🕑2pm UK Time Join Burmese Rohingya Organisation UK for panel “The Genocide Never Stopped: Five years on from the World Court’s order to protect the Rohingya” w/ @waiwainu.bsky.social @akilarad.bsky.social & more. Reg: us02web.zoom.us/webinar/regi...

Truly an honor to join @waiwainu.bsky.social in a podcast episode on #Burma! Very grateful to HKS Carr Center for supporting WPN. Listening to this reminded of why I am here today, what more I can and should do with my privilege. The people need all your support. www.hks.harvard.edu/centers/carr...

WPN is back, and welcomes the new year with a renewed hope for justice, accountability, peace, freedom for all in #Myanmar✊ And as @waiwainu.bsky.social , with our Research & Advocacy Coordinator, recently spoke on inclusive democracy in #Burma, we urge you to act ⬇️

Meeting President Jimmy #Carter in #Burma soon after my release from prison, and later at the Carter Center in the US, was inspiring. He was warm & one of the wisest people I've ever met. May he rest in #peace, and we continue his legacy to build a just & inclusive world for all. #JimmyCarter

I appreciate @nytimes for capturing renewed violence against #Rohingya in #RakhineState.However,I am concerned about language describing Arakan Army as a "pro-democracy rebel group."The #AA is ethnonationalist,never claiming to be part of #SpringRevolution. www.nytimes.com/2024/12/28/w...

1/2 - Let's get this started; I support local responses to the humanitarian crisis in 🇲🇲 as well as help civilians there stay safe from explosive weapons. Myanmar is world #1 in terms of casualties from landmines & UXO, big % of these casualties were children. thediplomat.com/2024/11/myan...

The political reality in Myanmar is changing by the day as the Arakan Army gains territorial control over most of Rakhine State – “Arakan” – including its border with Bangladesh...Yet, Rohingya are rightfully fearful of what is to come. english.dvb.no/rohingya-fac...

As the AA gains more control over Rakhine State and attempts to gain legitimacy, they are strategically deploying methods to cleanse Rohingyas from Rakhine. It is incredibly crucial not to overlook their atrocities and to conduct an independent investigation into the situation in Rakhine State.

On #HumanRightsDay, I am extremely alarmed to see the rapid erosion of #HumanRights in #Myanmar & across the world. #OurRightsOurFuture must begin with bold actions rooted in community. Inaction, double standards, lip services will only enable more atrocities including genocide.

On #HumanRightsDay, WPN says that "our fight for justice, freedom & equality will never be finished until it applies to everyone" just as @waiwainu.bsky.social said that "for us in #Burma, we have to continue to build our movement regardless of int'l attention": www.hks.harvard.edu/centers/carr...

Thank you #Slovenia for your intervention in the #ICJ case on #Rohingya genocide. From our advocacy, we know firsthand that Slovenia, a #UNSC member, is a strong supporter of justice, accountability, and rule of law in #Myanmar. More countries must follow suit. www.icj-cij.org/sites/defaul...

Thailand is getting upset with #Myanmar. myanmar-now.org/en/news/thai...

📢 @waiwainu.bsky.social: "The int'l community must support the application while taking further steps to bring justice & accountability for the atrocities that have been committed, in order to ensure lasting peace, equality & coexistence in the country" #ICC #Myanmar www.fidh.org/en/region/as...

1/ The application for an arrest warrant by @IntlCrimCourt Prosecutor @KarimKhanQC against #Myanmar junta's Min Aung Hlaing is great news. It's a key advancement in criminal accountability for #Rohingya victims & survivors who have been waiting for so long. www.icc-cpi.int/news/stateme...

As I told the Security Council last month at its Annual Open Debate on #WPS, we need actions to end impunity in #Myanmar, in order to protect all lives in country and build inclusive & peaceful future. #UNSC & #GA cannot fail us again. bsky.app/profile/wome...

I welcome the appointment of Dr. Khalilur Rahman as @ChiefAdviserGoB's High Representative on #Rohingya issues & other key priorities. I hope he will meaningfully engage with my community for our safe, voluntary, dignified return to our homes in #Myanmar. www.dhakatribune.com/bangladesh/r...

While high-level conference on #Rohingya and calls for justice are welcome, #UNGA Third Committee's latest #Myanmar resolution fails to call for arms and jet fuel embargo. Member States must address this gap. We cannot wait another year. @EUatUN @OICatUN press.un.org/en/2024/gash...

#UNSC must follow up on closed meeting on #Myanmar with an open meeting. Public discussions & a strong resolution will signal to junta to stop atrocities, govts & companies to stop complicity, and people of #Burma that world is on their side. www.securitycouncilreport.org/whatsinblue/...

New event! 🗓️26th Nov 🕡6:30pm BKK Time Join BWU, HIburma, KSCC & more for web talk: "Why is impunity for gender based violence difficult to tackle?" “ဂျန်ဒါအခြေပြု အကြမ်းဖက်မှုများအပေါ် ပြစ်ဒဏ်ကင်းလွတ်ခွင့် မပြုရေး ဘာကြောင့်ခက်ခဲနေသလဲ” FB live: www.facebook.com/honestinfo

📌"For us in #Burma we have to continue to build our movement regardless of int'l attention. We have no luxury of not doing this." This week, @waiwainu.bsky.social spoke at @harvardkennedy.bsky.social, calling for actions to protect democracy in #Myanmar & beyond. www.hks.harvard.edu/centers/carr...

Highlights from my talk at #HKS “The key here is that building the concrete foundations of democracy and a strong institution is critical.If you don’t have strong institutions, there will be actors who come in to destroy it.The rule of law is the most important thing.Nobody should be above the law.”
