Amnesty International: Brief History In 1961, Peter Benenson has established AI in Great Britain • 1972: Amnesty launches its first campaign against torture; • 1977: Amnesty is awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for contributing to ‘securing the ground for freedom, for justice, and thereby also for peace in the world’; • 1988: First campaign against death penalty.
Amnesty International: Strategic Dimension AI remains neutral in each conflict. It’s main purpose is to support those deprived of their rights and freedoms. Also, AI documents violations of the international laws and human rights abuses. Main goals: • Ending torture; • Rights of the refugees; • Complete abolition of death penalties; • Women's, children's, minorities' rights; • Rights of prisoners of conscience; • Protection of human dignity.
Amnesty International: Output AI holds its campaigns globally. States have a responsibility to protect human rights. However, many are failing to do this. Good example: due to globalization, many companies operating worldwide are often involved in serious abuses, such as forced labor and forcibly relocating communities from their homelands. Sometimes, their activity is a cause of fearsome disasters… Children outside the former Union Carbide facility in Bhopal, India. 1 December 2012
