"They told us we were enemies. But when we sat together, we discovered we shared the same fears, the same hopes." In Kachin State, where armed conflict has turned neighbor against neighbor, young people from different ethnic and religious communities are choosing a different path.
Escalating violence between the Kachin Independence Army and military forces has done more than displace families—it has weaponized identity. Misinformation campaigns on social media pit Shan against Kachin, Lisu against Jinghpaw. Young people, vulnerable to manipulation and facing unemployment, are being exploited to inflame tensions. Some have turned to drugs or crime; others have been trafficked. The fabric of communities that once lived together is unraveling.
