This report is produced by the UNDAC Team in Lima. It is developed in collaboration with the partners of the National Humanitarian Network (RHN). It covers the period from 27 to 30 March 2017. The next report will be issued around April 3, 2017
Seng Moon’s story is typical of the 37 trafficking survivors interviewed for this report. The
most unusual part of her story is that she escaped with her child; many other survivors
were forced to leave children behind. All the survivors we interviewed were trafficked from,
and managed to retur...n to, Myanmar’s Kachin State or the northern part of neighboring
Shan State. Most were from families affected by fighting in the area between Myanmar
government forces and the Kachin Independence Organization (KIO) and its armed wing,
the Kachin Independence Army (KIA). While the conflict dates to the independence of the
Union of Burma in 1948, the end of a 17-year ceasefire in 2011 resulted in an escalation of
hostilities that has caused the mass displacement of over 100,000 Kachin and other
ethnic minorities.
