Summary of the submission
This submission aims to strengthen Myanmar’s efforts to reform healthcare system to achieve the UHC goals and fulfill right to health enshrined in international human rights instruments. As a member state of the United Nations (‘UN’), Myanmar government has obligations to fulfill the rights of its citizens set forth in international treaties for which it has ratified. Myanmar ratified the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (‘ICESCR’) in 20171 and developed many plans to realize the provisions of ICESCR including providing quality healthcare to its citizens. Moreover, the Sustainable Development Goals2 (‘SDGs’) also emphasized on the achieving of UHC in its target 3.8 and therefore, Myanmar has an obligation to take part in the SDGs agenda to achieve UHC by 2030.
Executive Summary
1.1 Civil Authorize Negotiate Organization (C.A.N-Myanmar) is a non-governmental organization that works with local activists and communities to protect and promote the rights of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and intersex (LGBTIQ) persons in Myanmar. It is also a lead member of the “Coalition of LGBTI organizations under Electoral Sector for the Democratic Transitioning of the Republic of the Union of Myanmar (CLOESDTRUM)” which consists of 25 LGBTI organizations from different regions of Myanmar. This report is prepared for the United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC) in collaboration with 17 LGBTI organizations from Upper Myanmar region. This report highlights instances where discriminations based on sexual orientation and gender identity are affecting the lives of LGBTI persons, and where the legal framework of Myanmar is failing to adequately protect the human rights of LGBTI persons, failing to meet its obligations under international human
rights law.
Women’s Rights and Gender Equality Since 2nd cycle UPR review
The Gender Equality Network (“GEN”) is an active inter-agency network that aims to facilitate the development and implementation of enabling systems, structures and practices for the advancement of women, gender equality and the realization of women’s rights in Myanmar. Based in Yangon, GEN is comprised of over 100 national and international non-government organizations, civil society organizations, networks, and technical resource persons. Formerly known as the Women’s Protection Technical Working Group, GEN has worked collaboratively since 2008 to promote gender equality and women’s protection.
Under the UNDRIP Indigenous Peoples have the right to enjoy their own means of subsistence and sustainable environmental management. Indigenous peoples also have the right to Free, Prior, and Informed Consent (FPIC) and the right to be compensated when their lands, territories or natural resources have been confiscated, occupied, or damaged. 16.Under current economic reform processes, the lands and natural resources belonging to Indigenous Peoples have become targets for exploitation. FPIC has been not legislated in Burma/Myanmar. As a result, Indigenous Peoples face long-term negative social and environmental impacts due to implementation of small, medium and mega-projects such as extractive industry projects, large scale land- concessions, and government led green grabbing without FPIC.
The Women’s League of Burma, an umbrella organization of 13 ethnic women’s organizations, has been documenting human rights violations against women and girls in Burma’s ethnic communities through member organizations since it was founded. Since the 2011 UPR, we have
been working in affected communities to track the progress of the commitments made by the Government of Burma (hereinafter ‘the GOM’). Through our 13 member organisations, field-staff monitor human rights violations against women and girls in communities which often remain
inaccessible to observers, international NGOs, and providers of humanitarian assistance.
