What is Write for Rights?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n

More than 20 years ago, a group of people came together for a 24-hour letterwriting marathon in support of people whose human rights had been violated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That simple idea grew into Write for Rights, now the world\u2019s largest annual human rights campaign.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Every year, people around the world write letters and sign petitions to put pressure on governments, leaders and decision makers, while showing care and support for people and their families.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This year, we’re inviting Hongkongers around the world to write to three Hong Kong activists behind bars \u2014 Owen Chow, Gwyneth Ho and Leung Kwok-hung\u2014 and to human rights defenders in Pakistan, Russia and Egypt: Imaan MazariHazir and Hadi Ali Chattha, Daria Egereva, and Marwa Arafa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Together, these actions have helped change the lives of more than 100 people \u2014 helping people regain their freedom, securing justice and protecting human
rights defenders so they can continue their work. A letter can be the start of
change.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
