@FBAFolke 20 år. @RobertEgnell betonar vikten av att titta på fred o säkerhet ur ett mänskligt perspektiv, istället för att bara fokusera på stater och krigförande aktörer. #FBA har en viktig roll att spela i en komplex värld.

Again, @ACLEDINFO does an impressive job visualising state violence against civilians in #Myanmar.
"...more incidents of violence against civilians by state forces operating domestically were reported in Myanmar than in any other country in the world."
