SIQA volunteers join the event All Write for Rights 2014

SIQA was actively involved in organizing Amnesty International letter writing marathon in Rustavi as a partner organization of Amnesty International on December 11-14. Our volunteers invited human rights activists and local civic society to join the international event showing support to victims of human rights violations. During the three day letter writing marathon the following events were organized by SIQA:  

- Thursday evening with a human rights movie (December 11)

- Amnesty International presentation with Brano Tichy (December 12)

- letter writing event in high school no. 3 (December 12)

- presentation about human rights and promoting Write for Rights Georgia 2014 in the House of Justice (December 13)

- Write for Rights in the SIQA office (December 14)

EVS volunteer from Poland, Beata Gudz together with Tiko Logockaya from Rustavi gathered more than 328 signatures showing support of those whose rights have been unjustly violated. During a three day event more than 120 people signed letters to support individuals.

When you write a letter during Write for Rights 2014, you can help change a life. By taking action on one or more of the cases presented by Amnesty International, one can join hundreds of thousands of others around the world in demanding that the rights of individuals are respected, protected and fulfilled.
