This is your chance to help bring long-lasting change to Burma!
Burma is one of the poorest countries in the world. It is ruled by one of
the world’s most brutal regimes, guilty of every possible human rights
violation.
It has one of the worst records of religious persecution in the world.
Let us paint you a picture of the desperate situation ...
- Over 2,000 political prisoners are in jail subjected to
terrible torture.
- Over 70,000 child soldiers have been forcibly conscripted
into the army.
- Over 3,200 villages in Burma in Eastern Burma have been
destroyed since 1996.
- Over 2.5 million people are suffering as a result of the cyclone and the
regime’s obstruction of aid.
- Over 1 million people are displaced in the jungle.
You have the chance to help us paint a different future for Burma.
Change for Burma! is an exciting new joint campaign by
Christian Solidarity Worldwide (CSW) and Partners Relief and Development UK. Our
aim is to bring long-lasting change to Burma and to see the international
community take action on behalf of those suffering in Burma. We want to see
freedom and justice restored to the people of Burma.

and lobby the UK government, United Nations and international community to
take concrete action to bring change to Burma.
