AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL
WHO WE
ARE
AISA is one of thirteen Amnesty Student Groups in the Netherlands which connect young people willing to come together and take action for human rights.
As a daughter organization of Amnesty International - the world's largest human rights movement - we work by the same values of justice, fairness, truth, and freedom.
From speaking out against death penalty to fighting for freedom of expression, we strive to change the world on a personal level, one individual at a time.
We fulfil our mission by organizing various events and campaigns. This includes: film screenings, demonstrations, lectures, debates, social get-togethers and more.
We follow the footsteps of Amnesty International by upholding its traditions, such as signing petitions or writing letters demanding the release of prisoners of conscience.
