Effects of Human Rights Violations

What role does the factor presently play in causing your family to not produce enough food, earn sufficient income to purchase food, or access adequate nutrition? 

Human rights violations are currently causing many devastating issues in Burma and are leading to a an ongoing civil war. These violations include land confiscations, arbitrary arrests, forced labor, child labor, torture, human trafficking, rape and sexual violence, extrajudicial killings, and ethnic cleansing. Because of this issues, the Burmese people have dispersed to nearby countries while some have decided to stay and live through these horrible conditions since the refugee camps are sometimes just as worst.

The government has taken control of 100% of Burma's land and continues to benefit from it through foreign investment while the people work and cultivate it under terrible working conditions. The Burmese people most likely never actually eat anything they produce. The government exports it and makes major profits. Since agriculture is the most important economic driver and farming is a dominant form of employment, the people directly feel the affects of human rights violations when the Burmese government continues to seize land and violate the people's rights. Besides the fact that productivity greatly decreases, there are basically much fewer people working and producing crops as before. This is a result of ethnic cleansing and other violations that eventually led to death, imprisonment, or emigration.
