From Myanmar to Australia, a former refugee shares what it means to struggle for Rohingya rights

Noor Azizah was born in 1995 in Myanmar, spent eight years in Malaysia, and was granted asylum in Australia in 2003. She is part of the Rohingya community, a Muslim minority group in Myanmar that has been denied citizenship and discriminated against for decades. Today, it is estimated that over a million Rohingya refugees have fled Myanmar, according to United Nations’ estimates. They are widely considered the largest stateless population in the world.
