About the Amnesty International Northcote Group
Who we are: we are the primary representatives of Amnesty International in our local community. We stand up for Human Rights. The purpose of Amnesty is to protect individuals wherever justice or freedom is denied. We promote the values of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
We like to get involved locally to raise awareness for national campaigns through events such as performance evenings (music, poetry, art and film) and talks by representatives in the human rights community, lobbying MPs, and involvement in human rights petitions.
Performance art in whatever form is a great medium for people to come together and better understand current human rights issues and also a fun way to take action and stand up for human rights. The Universal Declaration of human rights looks after us all no matter who we are or where we live. Everyone has these rights – our rights are part of what makes us human and no one should take them away from us.
