Looking Back on 2025

The Women’s League of Burma (WLB) is launching a report entitled “Looking Back on 2025,” which highlights the impact of ongoing armed conflict and the deepening political, economic, and humanitarian crisis in Burma/Myanmar on women. The report sheds light on the challenges faced by WLB’s member organizations working on the ground despite extreme security, financial, and operational constraints. It also presents key data from their work through infographics and some highlights of both WLB member organizations and WLB as an umbrella organization in 2025. In 2025, WLB member organizations documented 209 cases of sexual and gender-based violence. They provided support to internally displaced persons (IDPs), Civil Disobedience Movement (CDM) members, women human rights defenders (WHRDs), and survivors of sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) and conflict-related sexual violence (CRSV), as well as emergency assistance to those affected by the March 2025 earthquake.
