Australians deserve political leaders with real solutions to address issues affecting people’s lives, including access to housing, healthcare and a safe climate, so people can enjoy their human rights.

Around the world, authoritarian practices are rising. From Afghanistan to China, from Myanmar to the United States, the same playbook is being used: silence those who speak out and scapegoat marginalised communities to sow fear and division.

It only works if the world looks away.

But we won’t.

We say NO to brutality — and YES to humanity.

Stand with us. Make a tax‑deductible donation before June 30 to power the people fighting for dignity, justice, and human rights everywhere: https://action.amnesty.org.au/time-to-act-now

🚨The recent images of Dr. Hussam Abu Safyia are shocking evidence of Israel's abuse against Palestinian detainees.

Dr. Abu Safyia has been arbitrarily detained for one and a half years without charges, while being physically abused and denied healthcare. His recent solitary confinement adds a further layer of concerns over his deteriorating health.

Dr. Abu Safyia must be immediately and unconditionally released. Israel must release all Palestinians arbitrarily detained. States must pressure Israel to stop abusing Palestinian prisoners.

Call on Australia to act now: https://www.amnesty.org.au/act-now/call-on-foreign-minister-wong-free-dr-abu-safiya/

𝗚𝗲𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗳𝗿𝗲𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗸𝗲𝗿! 📢 Around the world, people seeking safety are being criminalised, detained, and pushed further into the margins, not because of what they’ve done, but because of where they were born.

This Refugee Week, stand in solidarity with migrants and refugees with our “No Human Is Illegal” sticker. It’s a simple and powerful declaration of support for people on the move, and a refusal to let governments decide who is worthy of dignity, safety, and respect.
