Akha Heritage Foundation	Akha	Asia
The goal of this web site is to expose the fact that the Akha lack in human rights, their land is being taken by business and forestry interests, their children are being taken from the villages by American backed missions, further speeding their eviction from the mountains. Alternate URL: Ahka.org
Akha Heritage Foundation	Akha	Asia
A not-for-profit, non-religiously or politically-affiliated, grassroots organization dedicated to improving the life-threatening realities that confront the Akha of 300 plus mountain villages in northen Thailand, Myanmar, Laos, China and Vietnam. We believe that the annhilation of a culture is not only a complete disregard of a very basic human right, but a tragedy suffered by the world at large and its future generations, as already experienced countless times throughout history. The Akha are a unique people with deep, rich traditions which are on the verge of being completely destroyed, and we are in the process of trying to uphold for them the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples.
