You can change lives
Too often, leaders disregard people's fundamental rights. They overlook International Laws, they silence opponents, they control the media and they allow human rights abuses to go unchallenged.
But it doesn't have to be that way. Amnesty International's mission is to shine a spotlight on human rights abuses. With your help, we collect evidence, expose the truth and mobilise people to take action.
Your support will:
- Free political prisoners,
- Defend people who put their lives on the line for justice and equality,
- Change discriminatory laws,
- Help abolish the death penalty in more countries,
- Bring criminals to justice.
In Australia, our current focus is on reducing the number of Indigenous children in detention, fighting for the rights of people seeking asylum and ending discrimination of LGBTQI Australians.
100% funded by you
Governments are afraid of us because we are 100% independent and unstoppable. For the people, by the people.
Amnesty doesn’t accept funding from governments or political organisations so they have zero leverage on what we do.
This financial independence means we’re free to campaign with objectivity and impartiality and to defend human rights worldwide.
