add to outlook add to google calendar remind me
The free workshop will be led by Don Wright, an Amnesty International activism coordinator based in Vancouver.
�Torture is never justified,� says Wright. �It�s inhumane and it is illegal under international law, yet it is still used in most countries, by governments that have signed treaties forbidding its use.�
The workshop has been designed to introduce participants to the nature of torture and the measures required to prevent torture in five target countries: Mexico, Philippines, Morocco, Nigeria, and Uzbekistan. Part of the focus will be on identifying opportunities for community outreach, engaging local media outlets, and effective use of social media.
The workshop is open to everyone including high school students, and no previous experience with Amnesty International or campaigning required. For more information contact Don Wright at [email protected] or 604-294-5160 extension 101.
