Karenni Community

The Karenni Community comprises people from the Karenni (or Kayah) ethnic group, primarily from Myanmar's Kayah State. They maintain distinct cultural traditions, language, and social practices. Many Karenni individuals have sought refuge or migrated due to ongoing conflicts, political instability, and human rights issues in Myanmar. As a community, they often organize culturally and socially to preserve their heritage, support each other, and advocate for their rights. This community may be found in Myanmar, neighboring countries, and abroad, contributing to multicultural diversity and working towards peace and stability for their people.
