Amnesty Zurich English Group

The Amnesty Zurich English Group is human rights defenders group from diverse backgrounds, coming from different countries and now living in Zurich. We came together with a common purpose: to protect human rights and achieve a positive impact globally and locally.

We are a volunteer organization for anyone who is interested in contributing to human rights and fighting for justice. We welcome any initiatives and personal projects that you might have concerning human rights and social justice. These initiatives and projects are converted into task groups, with the objective to create actions, raise awareness and drive campaigns.

We conduct events, write letters to heads of states and also hold solidarity actions to uphold dignity and human rights. In addition, we also actively support other Amnesty groups’ activities in Switzerland as well as globally.

If you would like to write letters to heads of state and show solidarity with the human rights crisis in Palestine, click on this link; there are letters that you can print at home and send at your local postal office.


To create greater impact, we also constituted teams dedicated to Communications and Finance, also run by our volunteers, and we exchange messages mostly on WhatsApp. Would you like to contribute and help out with our mission? Feel free to contact us by filling out this questionnaire.


Feel free to meet us in person as well: we meet on the last Tuesday of every month, at a location revealed in our chats.
