Overview
We investigated human rights concerns related to migration, living and working conditions, and access to HIV/AIDS services and reproductive health services for Burmese women in Thailand. Vulnerability to HIV/AIDS for Burmese women stemmed from abuses they experienced: gender and ethnic discrimination, including violence; unsafe migration and trafficking; labor and sexual exploitation; and denial of health care. Despite having bound itself to human rights laws, the Thai government is failing to fulfill its obligations to Burmese women, with particularly devastating impacts for their well-being, including the risk of HIV/AIDS. Moreover, as our documentation shows, this failure to incorporate human rights concerns into its national response to the epidemic virtually guarantees that HIV/AIDS will continue to be a problem in Thailand. /// Nous avons examiné les problèmes des droits de l'homme en relation avec la migration, les conditions de vie et de travail et l'accès aux services de santé relatifs au VIH/SIDA et à ceux de la reproduction des femmes birmanes en Thaïlande. La vulnérabilité des femmes birmanes au VIH/SIDA provient des abus dont elles sont victimes: discrimination sexuelle et ethnique, y compris violence; migration à haut risque et trafic de personnes; exploitation sexuelle et au travail; refus de soins médicaux. Malgré son accord avec les lois sur les droits de l'homme, le gouvernement de la Thaïlande manque à ces obligations envers les femmes birmanes, avec des conséquences dévastatrices sur leur bien-être, y compris le risque du VIH/SIDA. De plus, notre documentation montre que cet échec d'incorporer les problèmes des droits de l'homme à sa réponse nationale à l'épidémie garantit que le VIH/SIDA continuera d'être un problème en Thaïlande. /// Investigamos temas en cuanto a derechos humanos relacionadas con migración, condiciones de vida y laborales así como acceso a servicios para personas con infección de VIH/SIDA y los servicios para la salud reproductiva para mujeres birmanas en Tailandia. La vulnerabilidad a infección por VIH/SIDA para mujeres birmanas se derivó de los abusos que experimentaron: discriminación de género y étnica, incluso violencia; migración y tráfico inseguros; explotación laboral y sexual, y negación de cuidado de la salud. A pesar de haberse sometido a las leyes de los derechos humanos, el gobierno tailandés no está cumpliendo con sus obligaciones con las mujeres birmanas, con repercusiones en particular devastadoras para su bienestar, incluso el riesgo de infección por VIH/SIDA. Más aún, como lo muestra nuestra documentación, este fracaso para incorporar temas respecto a derechos humanos en su respuesta nacional a la epidemia virtualmente asegura que la infección por VIH/SIDA seguirá siendo un problema en Tailandia.
