Campaigns

The unregulated global arms trade inflicts misery worldwide. Every year thousands of people are killed, injured, raped and forced to flee their homes as a result.

Counter Terror with Justice
The so-called “war on terror” has led to an erosion of a whole host of human rights. States are resorting to practices which have long been prohibited by international law, and have sought to justify them in the name of national security.

Stop Violence Against Women
Violence against women is often ignored and rarely punished. Women and girls suffer disproportionately from violence - both in peace and in war, at the hands of the state, the community and the family. A life free from violence is a basic human right.

Abolish the Death Penalty
Thousands of people around the world are waiting for governments to kill them.  Amnesty International is campaigning to end these killings.  Join our global campaign to end all executions - a  global abolition of the death penalty.
