This International Women’s Day, ALTSEAN Burma is launching a groundbreaking book called Women’s Voices from the Revolution (a collection of writings by first-time writers). This report is a powerful testimony to women’s resistance to military rule and control and against the oppression and sexual violence faced by women in militarised societies.

ALTSEAN Burma is a human rights organisation which campaigns for a return to democratic and civilian rule for Myanmar. APEHDA partners with ALTSEAN support their flagship women’s leadership program for women of ethnic minorities in Myanmar.

This event is presented as part of WRAW Fest 2025 by Victorian Trades Hall Council, Union Aid Abroad-APHEDA, ALTSEAN Burma and the Australian Education Union AEU and supported by MEAA and PEN International.
