Adhikāra is an independent human rights repository devoted to reducing the barriers to human rights knowledge for the people of Burma, especially concerning media access, language restrictions, and conceptual understanding.

Adhikāra (meaning “rights,” “authority,” or “prerogative” in the Sanskrit language despite possible interpretational variations in different beliefs, ideologies, and religions over time) was established by a group of experienced human rights activists in June 2023 in exile after considering an organisation that would necessarily fill the gap in the human rights field by conducting creative ways of enhancing intellectual and conceptual human rights discourse and shrinking different forms of limitations to human rights knowledge access, especially during the interregnum and the Spring Revolution.
