Creation of a campaign to raise awareness about injustly imprisoned political prisoners
Generating media attention for campaign
Detailed Description
Together with 11 other people I donated 4 weeks of my life to work on a campaign to free Nasrin Sotoudeh, an injustly imprisoned Iranian lawyer and Ales Baliatski, an injustly imprisoned human rights defender from Belarus. Out of 120 applications, I was one of the 12 people selected to be part of this ground breaking campaign. We were locked up symbolically at Amnesty's headquarter in Amsterdam where we worked hard on developing a campaign. To make sure to get the best out of our action we received masterclasses in Human Rights, Politics, Campaigning, Digital Activism, Lobby, Press & Communication, Video & Editing, and more.
We all had one main goal: Attention for the cases of Nasrin, Ales and other injustly imprisoned prisoners! I am very happy to say that in september 2013 Nasrin Sotoudeh has been released from prison.
