MMN publishes research documenting Thailand’s response to mixed migration from post-coup Myanmar.<\/p>\n

2021 military coup in Myanmar has triggered mass mixed migration. The post-coup violence, economic collapse and humanitarian catastrophe inside Myanmar have prompted ever-larger numbers of people to cross borders in search of safety, survival and sustainable livelihoods. Those seeking to migrate from Myanmar currently have very few options and are caught between a slow and expensive labour migration scheme run by the junta or risking dangerous clandestine journeys across increasingly militarized borders.<\/p>\n

Deeply concerned about this situation, MMN has produced this research paper with the following objectives in mind. First, the paper seeks to gain a better understanding of Thailand\u2019s policy approach vis-\u00e0-vis Myanmar migrants entering Thailand since the coup; second, it seeks to develop concrete recommendations aimed at policymakers to improve the situation for these migrants; and finally, the paper aims to serve as a tool for MMN and other migrants\u2019 rights organisations to develop more effective advocacy strategies.<\/p>\n
