In challenging times its worth remembering those across the world who stand up for the rights we exercise every day , in difficult and dangerous circumstances.

Amnesty International is a movement of ordinary people from across the world standing up for humanity and human rights. When injustice happens to one person, it happens to us all.

Recent campaigns include refugee and migrant rights, climate change, children's rights, women's rights, Syrian conflict and LGBTI rights. Amnesty's biggest achievements include outlawing torture, holding war criminals to account and controlling the arms trade.

Your support is of significant value - only together can we continue to make a difference.
