Mizzima

Mizzima News is a Burmese multimedia news organisation. A member of the Burma News International coalition, Mizzima was founded in exile in 1998 amid the pro-democracy movement. The outlet later established a bureau inside Myanmar in the 2010s as the country's military regime transitioned toward semi-democratic governance. Having spent years operating from abroad, Mizzima returned home during the reform era but was once again driven underground after the 2021 Myanmar coup d'état, continuing its work despite renewed repression.
