Five o’clock this morning has come and gone and this year’s Amnesty International report on the state of the world’s human rights is now available to the world. Some of the team stayed up all night to make sure it was all there.
The site contains the usual mix of materials, including the A-Z list of countries detailing the issues in 2008, the Foreword by Amnesty International Secretary General Irene Khan presenting the organization’s case to the world and a range of video and audio materials and images.
Amnesty International’s Secretary General, Irene Khan, is at the World Economic Forum in Davos. Ms Khan contributed to YouTube’s The Davos Debates, giving her view of the issues surrounding the Forum.
Dedication written by Amnesty International’s Secretary General Irene Khan during her visit to the Park for Peace Villa Grimaldi:
Amnesty International stands in solidarity with the victims, survivors, their friends and family of all those who were tortured here. We share the collective memory and we share the collective responsibility to ensure truth, justice and reparation.
We will not forget and we will work with you to make sure that never again shall such a tragedy happens.
