Annual letter writing marathon

High School students explored this issue of human rights today by getting involved with the annual letter writing marathon organized by Amnesty International. All classes wrote letters of support to people who have been incarcerated for standing up for their homes and dignity. The aim of the project is not only to raise awareness of human rights violations but also to put pressure on country leaders to reconsider their actions in relation to the abuse of humans in their country.
