3/31/22, 10:35 AM Films shed light on pressing digital rights issues in Myanmar - EngageMedia The event, along with the films, hopes to raise public awareness, empower people to speak of their struggles in exercising their human rights online and mobilise more people to call for the immediate attention of the Myanmar government in upholding human rights online and offline. The film launch event also comes at a critical time, as free speech advocates continue to call for the immediate release of Reuters journalists Wa Lone and Kyaw Soe Oo, who covered the massacre of Rohingya Muslims, a year after their arrest. This film project was made possible by a project grant from the Association for Progressive Communications (APC) and the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (SIDA). 1 thought on “Films shed light on pressing digital rights issues in Myanmar” 1 Pingback: EngageMedia | It’s Time To Talk https://engagemedia.org/2018/film-digital-rights-myanmar/ 5/8
