Description/notes

Amnesty International is a global movement of more than 10 million people who take injustice personally. They work for a world in which all people can enjoy their human rights. Amnesty’s Regional Office for the Americas based in Mexico, carries out research and campaigns relating to the climate crisis and human rights, focusing on the phasing out of fossil fuels, just transition, and supporting and connecting different movements working on climate justice (especially youth, Indigenous and Afro-descent peoples). Amnesty Americas recently launched a climate justice campaign raising the voices of indigenous peoples as living solutions to the climate crisis.
