Take Action for Human Rights

SIGN YOUR NAME TO SUPPORT THESE YOUNG PEOPLE UNDER THREAT

 

It’s often said that young people are our future leaders. We say they’re here now, and they’re already fighting some of the biggest crises we face worldwide. From calling out climate injustice to calling for women’s rights, from tackling homelessness to exposing police brutality, children and young people are a leading force for change. But adults in charge try to sweep them away, harassing, attacking and jailing young people.

Take Action: Sign your name in support of these ten young people to give them strength and make it possible for them to continue to dare where adults in authority are failing. We will deliver a letter to the government responsible for each case with the total number of signatures, so that they see the strong public support for each individual in these cases.
