Part of our strength is in our ability to bring together various organisations and individuals in Myanmar’s gender equality landscape to advocate for issues and gender equality causes. We form Working Groups to focus on particular campaign strategies and initiatives, which are determined by the membership and Steering Committee.

The Working Groups develop a strategy specific to the issue at hand – for instance, on specific legal reforms or strategies to engage men in the gender equality dialogue – and develop a tailored campaign designed to reach target groups, such as lawmakers and the general public. We aim to do this in a vibrant, public manner, to both raise awareness on issues of gender inequality and propose action to improve the gender equality situation in Myanmar. We often link our campaigns to international campaigns, such as International Women’s Day (8 March) and 16 Days of Activism. In this way, we act as a conduit for a multitude of organisations and individuals to join global gender equality movements and raise awareness locally.
