SIGN UP › [[link removed]]Dear John,
You care about making a human rights impact.
And right now, we’re kicking off the world’s largest campaign on behalf of
people who have been attacked, harassed and jailed, including for their human
rights work. It’s called Write for Rights, and you can be a part of it.
Sign up for Write for Rights today, and you’ll immediately access exclusive
resources and effective tools to amplify your impact. »

This year’s campaign is unique because we’re focusing Amnesty’s efforts on young
people who have been targeted — young people like 23-year-old Yasaman Aryani, in
the photo above.
Her case is outrageously unjust. Just this year, Iranian authorities sentenced
her to 16 years in prison for peacefully protesting Iran’s compulsory veil laws
for women. We must free her!
As part of Write for Rights, we are mobilizing our global community to write
letters on behalf of targeted young people — showing them our support.
This works.
Former human rights defenders tell us that Write for Rights letters gave them
hope during their most dire moments. Further, in the last five years, Write for
Rights has helped release 26 people who were unjustly imprisoned around the
world.
Birtukan Mideksa, a former Write for Rights case and human rights activist from
Ethiopia told our team, “I am proof that your letters have power. Your letters
set me free.” How powerful!
Sign up now for Write for Rights so you can make a difference in the life of a
young human rights champion. »
