Demand Dignity: Campaign digest

Index Number: ACT 35/003/2009
Fecha de publicación: 28 mayo 2009

In this digest Amnesty International presents an overview of the aims of the campaign. To protect the rights of those who live in slums, to end the needless deaths of women from complications in pregnancy, to ensure corporate actors pay due attention to the rights of those in poverty, world leaders must move from acknowledgement to action. Three underlying areas that have traditionally blocked progress must be addressed: accountability, access to rights and active participation.
