Message From A Relief Team Leader	2006-08-26	Shan State FBR IDP Mission
An appreciation of the IDP situation from a relief team leader in the field	2006-01-27	I am writing this to try to give a picture of what the situation is for people who are displaced by the attacks of the Burma Army. These people, technically called Internally Displaced People or IDPs, number over 1 million in Burma and over 600,000 in the Shan, Karenni and Karen States alone

The Free Burma Ranger’s (FBR) mission is to provide hope, help and love to internally displaced people inside Burma, regardless of ethnicity or religion. Using a network of indigenous field teams, FBR reports on human rights abuses, casualties and the humanitarian needs of people who are under the oppression of the Burma Army. FBR provides medical, spiritual and educational resources for IDP communities as they struggle to survive Burmese military attacks.
