The United States Campaign for Burma (USCB) is a U.S.-based membership organization that evolved out of the

human rights violations
committed by Burma's military regime.

Mission

The mission of USCB is to build a broad-based coalition of grassroots and institutional support for freedom in

Burma
. Today, USCB is active on social media and through its newsletter but does not maintain a physical location or any paid staff.

USCB's objectives included:

  1. To strengthen the position of 1991 Nobel Peace Prize recipient Aung San Suu Kyi and the democratically elected National League for Democracy, by cutting the political and economic lifelines of the ruling military junta;
  2. To organize and advocate for international intervention in Burma; and
  3. To inform grassroots citizens, international media and policymakers about Burma’s political, social and economic crisis.

Structure

U.S. Campaign for Burma is a 501(c)3, tax-exempt, organization. The board of directors are internally appointed and have no responsibilities to the membership at large.

Anyone may participate in USCB and receive updates, emails, and participate in campaigns by signing up through the web page.
