About Us
We are SOAS’ official branch of Amnesty International. Amnesty is an organisation that believes we are all born with equal and inalienable rights and fundamental freedoms. They aim to protect these rights through detailed research and determined campaigning. They fight abuses of human rights worldwide; bringing tortures to justice, changing oppressive laws and freeing people jailed simply for voicing their opinion. As a member of the society, you will have access to campaign material, training, conferences and the Annual General Meeting. We will work closest with Amnesty staff for campaigning and fundraising activities. If you are a SOAS student who cares about human rights, this is the soceity for you!
