Amnesty International is a global movement of more than 10 million people who take injustice personally. We are campaigning for a world where human rights are enjoyed by all.In Ireland, our 18,000 members campaign on issues like reproductive rights, ending torture and protecting migrant & refugee rights, among others. We are independent of any political ideology, economic interest or religion. We are funded by our members and supporters.We investigate and expose the facts, whenever and wherever human rights abuses happen. We lobby governments and other powerful groups to make sure they respect international law. We mobilise millions of supporters around the world to campaign for change and to stand in defence of human rights activists. We support people to claim their rights through education and training.Over the years, human rights have moved from the fringes to centre stage in world affairs. Amnesty has grown from seeking the release of political prisoners to upholding the whole spectrum of human rights. Our work protects and empowers people – from abolishing the death penalty to protecting sexual and reproductive rights, from combating discrimination to defending refugees and migrants' rights. We speak out for anyone whose freedom and dignity are under threat. After more than 50 years of groundbreaking achievements, Amnesty has been through a major transformation, adapting to dramatic changes in the world.
