Don't Forget Burma Campaign
Its most significant user-uploaded media campaign is the website Don’t Forget Burma. Designed to combat the lull in Burma-related coverage in the international media following the crackdown on demonstrators in October, Don’t Forget Burma was designed as a viral campaign where concerned citizens can upload messages of support for the Burmese cause and try to keep Burma in the media spotlight and public consciousness, the website currently has over 300 pictures from people around the world with a message 'Don't forget Burma'. This campaign was launched in conjunction with the Burma Campaign UK, Canadian Friends of Burma, the US Campaign for Burma, and Avaaz.org.
