Letter-writing actions
Amnesty International encourages supporters to write appeal letters directly to officials who are in a position to end a human rights violation, and to write solidarity letters directly to people wrongfully detained or targeted for their human rights work. In addition we offer two programs for regular letter-writers:
- Urgent Actions - actions require immediate response.
- Lifesaver actions - appeals designed for young letter-writers.
Please search below for all Amnesty International letter-writing actions, Urgent Actions, Livesaver actions, and priority actions by human rights issue or by country.
