Myanmar & Global – Arakan Rohingya National Organisation (ARNO)
The Arakan Rohingya National Organisation (ARNO) emerged in 1998 as a broad-based organisation of the Rohingya people with a pledge to promote ‘Rohingya unity’ and to realise the hopes and aspirations of the Rohingya people.
ARNO is a diplomatic and advocacy organization made up of Rohingya leaders. It is based in the United Kingdom.
ARNO is working with credible Rohingya socio-cultural, political and civil society organisations world-wide as well as other like-minded non-Rohingya organisations, including ethnic groups of the Union of Myanmar. It maintains close working relations with the British Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO), European Parliament/Union, Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, Fortify Rights, Burma Campaign U.K. and many other human rights and humanitarian organisations around the globe. It is also working with academics and educational institutions or universities. In addition, ARNO is actively working together with the Brussels-based Euro-Burma Office (EBO).
ARNO was a leading founder member of the Arakan Rohingya Union (ARU) formed in 2011 under the auspices of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) and the Euro-Burma Office (EBO).
