Human Rights Training


The Human Rights program aims at empowering young individuals and community leaders to promote human rights in their society and encouraging them to take a critical analysis of their own rights. The Human rights Training program promotes values, beliefs, and attitudes that encourage all individuals to uphold their own rights and those of others. It develops an understanding of everyone's common responsibility to make human rights a reality in their community. This program is an organized effort to transfer knowledge and develop the skills and attitudes that encourage the behavior to promote and protect human rights.

In addition, Our Human Rights training educates participants on the history of human rights, introduction to human rights, basic concepts of international human rights laws, core treaties, UN Human Rights Mechanism, and human rights practices. During the training, participants are encouraged to actively debate and discuss the complexities of human rights and how they fit in the context of Myanmar. This program is designed for youths, university students, human rights activists, NGO members, and anyone else with an interest in human rights offered quarterly.

Human Rights Documentation


Human Rights Advocacy training


We conduct advocacy at the local level and Union government level, and international levelĀ  in Myanmar to promote and protect the rights of ethnic communities. We do advocacy based on our documentation and research findings. Our advocacy strategy includes publications, campaigning, and advocating in person from the grassroots level to the national level. We also engage with international communities to improve human rights across Myanmar.

We also offer advocacy training for minority communities. This program is designed for minority youths, university students, human rights activists, local CSO leaders, NGO members, and anyone else with an interest in human rights offered quarterly.

The program aims to increase the capacity of minority youth and women to advocate for their rights under national law and international human rights laws. This program is specially designed for minority youth, human rights activists, and community leaders from conflict-affected areas to be able to advocate for their rights. This training covers the basic concepts of human rights, human rights documentation, and human rights advocacy strategy.

The expected result of the program is that participants themselves can become human rights advocates for themselves and their communities as well. This training will also become a channel for minority people to build their capacity and to promote and protect their rights in their daily rights. This training will provide insightful ways to defend and advocate for their rights. This training will support them to get to know their rights and to become human rights advocates. This training is designed for a 3-half-day training, enrolling at least 25 participants, especially minority youths, women, and community leaders across Myanmar.
