Towards an inclusive and democratic future in Rakhine State 

The situation of Rohingya in Rakhine State (Arakan) in Myanmar’s post-coup setting and prospects for inclusive peace and justice in the future - Interview with former Dutch Ambassador Laetitia Van Den Assum
How could the Rohingya, discriminated and increasingly marginalized for decades, be reintegrated in a democratic Rakhine society? What needs to be done to enable a sustainable return of the Rohingya to Rakhine State? What is the role of actors in the Arakan liberation movement and Myanmar’s interim democratic institutions to support the Rohingya in their full rehabilitation?
Marcus Brand, International IDEA’s Head of Mission in Myanmar spoke with former Netherlands Ambassador and Commissioner of the Advisory Commission on Rakhine State, Laetitia Van Den Assum, highlighting the importance of creating enabling preconditions for the Rohingya’s sustainable return to Rakhine State, eliminating mutual fear and mistrust among Rohingya and Arakan/Rakhine communities, and steps that can be taken to heal the joint trauma while ensuring criminal accountability and transitional justice for a peaceful co-existence in the future.
