International women’s networks are today launching a campaign to free women human rights defenders in Burma, highlighting activists detained during the recent crackdown. Beginning on November 25, the International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women, women’s networks will be calling for the release of all detainees by December 10. Out of those arrested during last September’s violent crackdown on peaceful protests led by monks, 106 women remain in detention, including six nuns.
