Purpose of the Campaign:

On 1st February 2021, Myanmar’s military staged a coup d’état, deposing the democratically elected civilian representatives of the November 2020 elections and transferring power to a military junta. Since then, thousands of people have been arbitrarily arrested and killed by the regime.
