Future of Human Rights Activism
Since the establishment of Amnesty International in 1961, Human Rights and solidarity have been the two main subjects for Amnesty International. In the past 50 years, several geopolitical shifts have taken place. Simultaneously, modern means of communication and new media have made the world smaller. Human rights activism changes along with these developments. In two show&talk evenings, we search for the meaning of this changing world and Amnesty's role within it. With our honoured guests, video fragments, interactive presentations and the audience we focus on two crucial aspects for Amnesty: images and empowerment.
