Courage is Contagious. Defend Those Who Defend Us.
Every day, human rights defenders put their lives, freedom, and mental wellbeing on the line to protect our rights. Amnesty does not take government funding to support them. We rely on people like you to make sure those that are targeted are never left to face these risks alone.
