Resource Collection
Dear Friends and Colleagues, due to current lack of resources, Burma Link is pausing information sharing until such time that we have adequate means to continue to a high standard in line with our Mission and Values. This pause in media sharing includes updating the resource collection on our website, sharing information on Facebook and Twitter, and updating our media monitoring spreadsheet. Thank you for all your ongoing support and understanding. For more information and how to help, click here.
