AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL
Amnesty International is a global movement of more than 7 million
people who campaign for a world where human rights are enjoyed by
all. Our vision is for every person to enjoy all the rights enshrined in
the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and other international
human rights standards. We are independent of any government,
political ideology, economic interest or religion and are funded mainly
by our membership and public donations.
