Story

Hola a todos!

El próximo 11 de septiembre correré una carrera para recaudar fondos para REDRESS, la ONG para la que trabajo, que irán destinados a ayudar a víctimas de tortura a obtener justicia en tribunales de todo el mundo, incluida la Corte Penal International. Mi objetivo es recaudar al menos 100 libras para apoyar el trabajo de mis abogados. Si podeis y os viene bien, por favor mirar nuestra página web: www.redress.org y donad cualquier cantidad que os venga bien en esta página: http://justgiving.com/Eva-Sanchis.También os agradecería si pudierais compartir este mensaje con otros amigos.

El dinero estará destinado a ofrecer representación legal a víctimas de tortura, ayudarlas para que puedan testificar en un juicio, presentar quejas formales contra los organismos pertinentes, etc. Por ejemplo, hace poco ayudamos a tres víctimas de Ruanda para que pudieron testificar en Holanda contra un acusado de participar en el genocidio de 1994. Fueron las únicas víctimas que pudieron testificar en el proceso. Además, estamos ayudando a 1,200 víctimas más.

A pesar de estar prohibida por la ley internacional, la tortura sigue usada con frecuencia en decenas de países del mundo, así que vuestra ayuda, creedme, es muy importante.

Un abrazo,

Eva

 Hello all!

Next Sunday September 11th, I'll run a 5K race in London to raise money for REDRESS, the NGO I work for. It helps torture survivors obtain justice in tribunals and courts around the world, including the International Criminal Court. My goal is to raise at least 100 pounds to help our lawyers with their work. Please visit our website: www.redress.org, and donate anything that you can afford in my page: http://www.justgiving.com/Eva-Sanchis I would also be grateful if you could share this message with your friends.

Your donations will help fund legal representation for victims, provide them with assistance so they can testify in court, log formal complaints before appropriate institutions, etc. For example, we recently helped three Rwandan genocide survivors testify against a genocide suspect in the Netherlands. They were the only survivors who were able to testify. Apart from these victims, we are currently helping over 1,200 survivors.

 Despite being forbidden by international law, torture is still widely used around the world, so believe me, your help is really important.

Un abrazo,

Eva
