		Burma is ruled by one of the most brutal military dictatorships in the world; a dictatorship charged by the United Nations with a “crime against humanity” for its systematic abuses of human rights, and condemned internationally for refusing to transfer power to the legally elected Government of the country – the party led by Nobel Peace Laureate Aung San Suu Kyi. The Burma Campaign UK is part of a global movement campaigning for human rights and democracy in Burma. Our campaigns aim to increase economic pressure on the regime by discouraging investment and tourism. We lobby the UK government and the European Union to increase political pressure on the regime. We are the only national organisation in the UK dedicated to campaigning for human rights and democracy in Burma.

		The military regime in Burma is one of the most brutal in the world, using its half million strong army to oppress its population and accused by the UN of breaking the Geneva Conventions by deliberately targeting civilians. Despite these appalling acts, there is no UN global arms embargo on Burma. The brutal regime is still allowed to buy foreign weapons to commit horrific human rights abuses and spends nearly half its budget on the military. Take action here
