Over the last 75 years, human rights have underpinned many of the positive transformations that the world has seen.

Whoever forms the next government, and whatever issues they face, we believe that starting with human rights as the basic framework is essential. In this collection of essays - on challenges ranging from the housing crisis to international conflict - we bring together experts from across the political spectrum to present the case that human rights provide solutions - human rights are the answer.

Welcome to our priority campaigns blog, with the latest news and more indepth analysis of our bigger campaigns.

Our priorities change as human rights changes around the world, and right now we're focusing on our Stop Torture, My Body, My Rights, and Save the Human Rights Act campaigns. But you'll also find comments and updates on our work on Syria, LGBTI rights and human rights abuses by corporate companies.

Amnesty works on almost every country on the planet. Our volunteer country specialists help us keep on top of reports and research about human rights abuses, and this is their take on our work.

Amnesty Feminists Network exists to campaign for a world where nobody suffers discrimination, exclusion or violence because of their sex or gender identity.

We are the Anti-Racism Network. We contribute to the work of the thousands if not millions of people working to bring down racist structures and systems. Together we are stronger.
