Queensland and Northern New South Wales

Amnesty International is a worldwide movement of people campaigning to protect human rights. Our impact on human rights is only made possible by the hard work and energy of our passionate volunteers and supporters. Amnesty International in QLD/NNSW encourages people to get involved with defending and protecting human rights in their local area.

In QLD and Northern NSW there are thousands of supporters working in different ways to defend human rights. Whether you want to join one of our action groups or networks, volunteer at events or help us out at the Action Centre, there are many ways in which you can help us defend human rights at Amnesty International.
