As the United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC) proceeds with its 42nd Regular Session, the human rights concerns in Burma (Myanmar) remain urgent. The Rohingya still living in Burma face regular human rights violations, attempts to delegitimise them through National Verification Cards, and are cut off from aid and NGOs offering life-sustaining assistance. Non-Rohingya Muslim community continues to face increasing systemic oppression which has drastically eroded their basic human rights. In response to these issues four organisations, namely the Arakan Rohingya National Organisation (ARNO), the Burma Human Rights Network (BHRN), the Burmese Rohingya Organisation UK (BROUK) and the Rohingya Women Welfare Society (RWWS) call upon the UN Human Rights Council (UNHRC) to take important measures. This mandate should focus on human rights violations, violations of international and international humanitarian law in the conflicts in Rakhine and Shan States.
