The International Parliamentary Inquiry (IPI) into the global response to the crisis in Myanmar is an initiative launched by APHR in June 2022 with the purpose of assessing the response of international actors to the crisis in Myanmar, and formulating effective policy recommendations for courses of action that could end the violence and positively address the urgent needs in the country.
The IPI is formed by a Committee of eight Parliamentarians from seven different countries in Africa, the Americas, Asia, and Europe who are appalled by the situation in Myanmar since the military takeover.
The IPI Committee has held a total of six public oral hearings online, as well as several private hearings, with dozens of stakeholders and experts, and has received dozens of written submissions. Two of its members conducted a fact-finding mission to the Thai-Myanmar border in August 2022.
The result of gathering and analyzing these inputs is the report "Time is not on our side": The failed international response to the Myanmar coup, to be publicly launched next Wednesday.
The report, under embargo until 7:00 pm (UTC+7) on Wednesday, 2 November 2022, can be accessed here.
We look forward to your attendance at the IPI report launch.
