Every year, Amnesty International’s Write for Rights campaign brings together people from around the world to fight injustice and support people whose human rights are under threat.

Over the past few years your actions have made a real difference to people’s lives. From Zimbabwe to Guatemala to Kyrgyzstan, activists have been freed and justice has been served.

This year’s campaign features people from around the world who are all connected because their human rights have been violated.

By writing letters, signing petitions and sharing stories, you can demand justice calling decision makers to do the right thing.

Join this year’s campaign and become part of a community working to make the world a more just and compassionate place. Join Write for Rights today.

Signing a petition is a great way to take part in the campaign. But did you know there are other ways to take part in Write for Rights?  

Imagine being locked away, alone, not knowing if anyone cares where you are. Now imagine receiving a letter from someone, telling you they believe in you. That’s what real letters can do: bring hope to people in the direst of situations. When letters arrive in huge numbers, they are also an unmistakable reminder to prison authorities and others that the world is watching.
