Amnesty International

ABOUT US:

Amnesty International is the world's largest grassroots human rights organisation. Their mission is to undertake research and action focused on preventing and ending grave abuses of human rights.
They are independent of any political ideology, economic interest or religion. They stand with victims of human rights violations whoever they are, wherever they are.
At RHUL Amnesty, our goal is to raise awareness on campus about various human rights campaigns taking place across the globe. We hope to fundraise as much as we can for campaigns chosen by our members and create an inclusive and educational community where students can collectively make a difference whilst having fun! 
 

OUR GOALS:

  • Weekly meetings discussing current human rights events and campaigns amnesty is supporting
  • Amnes-Tea — daytime socials on Campus to socialise and discuss campaigns while participating in fun activities
  • Regular fundraisers
  • Attending Amnesty events in London — Training and education conferences, as well as their social events, including JAMNESTY!
  • Meet new people and bond with students on campus - as well as wider networking opportunities
  • Film screenings and guest speakers!
  • Bi-weekly blogs featuring topics of interest as well as opportunities for essay submissions!
