About AARA
Action Against Rohingya Atrocities
Action Against Rohingya Atrocities documents and preserves evidence of violence, forced displacement and human rights violations against the Rohingya people. The organisation compiles eyewitness testimony, visual evidence and research to produce verifiable records that support accountability, humanitarian advocacy and historical truth.
Who We Are and What We Do
Action Against Rohingya Atrocities (AARA) is an independent initiative committed to documenting and preserving evidence of crimes, discrimination, and systematic persecution against the Rohingya population in Arakan, Myanmar. The organization conducts continuous research, field verification, and documentation to uncover the realities of violence, displacement, and human-rights violations that have been deliberately suppressed or ignored by mainstream narratives.
AARA was established with a single objective: to confront denial through truth. Our mission is to archive and present verified records of atrocities committed against the Rohingya by both the Myanmar military and rakhine armed groups operating in Rakhine State. Through visual documentation, survivor testimonies, digital archiving, and independent research, we seek to ensure that these crimes are not erased from collective memory. We work to create an accessible and reliable source of information that serves researchers, advocates, and institutions pursuing justice and accountability.
AARA believes that documentation is a form of resistance. Each photograph, video, and testimony represents a record of truth that challenges impunity and strengthens the collective voice of the Rohingya community. Our work is guided by the principles of accuracy, dignity, and transparency, ensuring that every piece of information contributes to the historical and moral record of the Rohingya struggle for justice, identity, and recognition.
