Justice for Myanmar

➡️ JUSTICE FOR MYANMAR - Right Livelihood Award 2025

"For their courage and their pioneering investigative methods in exposing and eroding the international support to Myanmar's corrupt military."

A military coup d'état has gripped Myanmar since 2021; the junta has killed 6,000 people, arbitrarily detained more than 20,000, and internally displaced more than 3.5 million. Since the takeover, they have subjected civilians to widespread and systematic attacks, bombing schools and hospitals with complete impunity, and blocking humanitarian aid.

For decades, Myanmar authorities have committed a genocidal campaign against the Rohingya, denying them their rights and freedoms, and their capacity to survive. The junta is deliberately restricting aid as part of its ruthless and repressive regime. The year 2024 marked a renewed surge of violence as Rakhine state became trapped in the middle of a brutal conflict between the military and the Arakan Army.

Justice for Myanmar works tirelessly, campaigning for justice and accountability for the people of Myanmar. They expose the countries, companies, and criminals who are profiting from and funding war crimes and country-wide suffering.

They have persuaded multinational corporations to divest hundreds of millions in business dealings to expose and dismantle the military cartel. Their Cartel Finance Map is an eye-opening web of corporations that fund the regime and member states of the ASEAN, who prop up the junta with deals, kickbacks, and shady funding.
