AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL MAGAZINE - Introduction
About us
We are ordinary people from across the world standing up for humanity and human rights. Our purpose is to protect individuals wherever justice, fairness, freedom and truth are denied.
During much of our history, our campaigning has focused on prisoners, but we have responded to the changing patterns of human rights violations in the world. Today the biggest threat to human rights in the world are mass violations in armed conflicts. People are now more likely to become victims of abuse because of who they are, rather than for what they think, say or do.
We have two main ways of working to achieve human rights for everyone:
Promoting general awareness of human rights
We carry out a wide range of educational activities about human rights, promoting the values contained in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and other international agreed human rights standards.
• We encourage people to accept that all human rights must
be protected
• We encourage governments to accept and enforce international
standards of human rights
• We encourage governments, political organisations, businesses,
other groups and individuals to support and respect human rights
Opposing specific abuses of human rights
We undertake research and action focused on stopping abuses of the following rights:
• Physical and mental integrity
• Freedom of conscience and expression
• Freedom from discrimination
Our vision and mission
Our vision is of a world in which every person enjoys all the human rights enshrined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (opens new window) and other international human rights standards.
Amnesty International has over 1.8 million members worldwide who are passionate about our beliefs and not afraid to take unpopular stands to realise our mission:
• To promote respect for all human rights
• To undertake research and action focused on preventing abuses
of the rights to physical and mental integrity, freedom of conscience
and expression and freedom from discrimination.
In fulfilling our mission, we focus in particular on:
• Campaigning to abolish the death penalty, torture and other
forms of cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment
• Ending extra-judicial executions and 'disappearances'
• Protecting the human rights of refugees and asylum seekers
• Protecting the human rights of non-combatants in armed conflicts
• Working for fair and prompt trials for all political prisoners
• Seeking the release of all prisoners of conscience.
We also oppose abuses such as hostage-taking, torturing and killing prisoners and other arbitrary killings.
History
Amnesty International was founded on the belief in the power of ordinary people to make extraordinary change.
In 1961, British lawyer Peter Benenson wrote a newspaper appeal, 'The Forgotten Prisoners', calling for an international campaign to protest against the imprisonment of men and women for their political or religious beliefs.
The appeal received a tremendous response. Within a month, more than a thousand readers had sent letters of support and offers of practical help. They also sent details of the cases of many more prisoners of conscience.
Within six months, what started as a brief publicity effort, was being developed into a permanent, international movement.
The principles of impartiality and independence were established from the beginning. The emphasis was on the international protection of human rights: our members would campaign for individuals anywhere in the world.
As we grew, our focus expanded to take in not just prisoners of conscience, but other victims of human rights abuses - such as torture, 'disappearances' and the death penalty - throughout the world.
We are now the world's largest international voluntary organisation
dealing with human rights. With over 1.8 million members and supporters
in more than 150 countries and territories united by a determination
to work for a world where everyone enjoys human rights.
Amnesty International founded in 1961, have two main ways of working to achieve human rights for everyone:
- Promoting general awareness of human rights; and
- Opposing specific abuses of human rights
