Amnesty International launches letter-writing campaign to fight injustice as demise of global order threatens human rights
Amnesty International will launch its annual global letter-writing campaign on 10 December (Human Rights Day) to fight injustice and support people whose human rights are under threat at a time when global order hangs in the balance.
As the war in the Middle East and Sudan rages on, and anti-abortion narratives and policies continue, activists from around the world are putting their lives on the line to speak out against oppression and injustice. Many are being threatened, jailed and even killed.
This year’s Write for Rights campaign features people whose human rights have been violated. Joel Paredes, from Argentina, was blinded by rubber bullets while peacefully protesting in his hometown of Humahuaca; Manahel al-Otaibi, from Saudi Arabia, was jailed after freely expressing herself on social media; while the Wet’suwet’en land defenders have been criminalized for protecting their ancestral land in Canada.

And when you pray tonight…pray for the right direction. Nothing is more depressing than moving and not getting anywhere.. you will move and never reach your destination because you don’t know where you’re going. May God lead you in the right direction so you can flourish.
