Amnesty International is a worldwide campaigning movement that works to promote
internationally recognized human rights.

Amnesty International's vision is of a world in which every person enjoys all
of the human rights enshrined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and
other international human rights standards. Our mission is to undertake
research and action focused on preventing and ending grave abuses of the rights
to physical and mental integrity, freedom of conscience and expression, and
freedom from discrimination, within the context of our work to promote all
human rights.

Amnesty International has more than a million members and supporters in over
140 countries and territories. Amnesty International is impartial and
independent of any government, political persuasion or religious creed. Our
work is financed largely by subscriptions and donations from our worldwide
membership.
