IPYG leads Global Youth Issued Joint Statement on Myanmar's Human Rights Crisis

It's been more than a month since the outbreak of the Myanmar human rights crisis with numerous deaths and casualties inflicted on citizens by Myanmar's military government.

Meanwhile a global peace movement led by IPYG (International Peace Youth Group, an affiliated organization of Heavenly Culture, World Peace, Restoration of Light) and many global youth organizations declared a joint statement on Myanmar's human rights crisis and sent it to the UN Secretary-General, international organizations, governments and civil society organizations.

252 youth organizations with 1.7 million members from 65 countries joined the statement that advocates for peaceful resolutions to the human rights crisis in Myanmar. 

The statement reads, "We urge the head of state of each country and the international community to actively pursue peaceful measures to safeguard the lives of Myanmar’s citizens." It adds, "We urge people and media worldwide to raise their voices in support of finding peaceful resolutions to the current crisis."

The statement highlighted global youth's "commitment to work toward ceasing conflicts, countering violence and establishing sustainable peace through the 2018’s UN Youth Declaration."

The following is a full text of the statement.

Peace!
