JournalACTIVists: when news and human rights go hand in hand

Some 50 years on from the founding of Amnesty International, bringing attention to human rights abuses has never been more important. The work of journalists overlaps with increasing frequency the commitment of activists to human rights campaigns. And with increasing frequency, unfortunately, those who choose to defend human rights face intimidation, censure, arrest and in many cases death.
