Michelle Owens, Women’s Right’s Leader, Amnesty International, Canterbury was the guest speaker at our\u00a0 Club meeting on May 25th. <\/span><\/p>\n

SI Canterbury and Amnesty Canterbury have formed a partnership to help protect and further the rights of women and girls and to enable our two local organisations to better support each other’s work. <\/span>Our\u00a0members were therefore\u00a0delighted to welcome her to our club and hear\u00a0about the work of Amnesty .<\/span><\/p>\n

Michelle explained that the Canterbury group are part of the organisation Amnesty International UK, standing up for human rights across the world \u2013 wherever justice, freedom, fairness and truth are denied.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In a stimulating talk she told us a little about the history of Amnesty International as well as the Canterbury branch, which is currently\u00a0focusing on the Philippines and what they are doing to help protect and defend Human Rights. <\/span><\/p>\n

Michelle then told us more about the work of the Women’s Rights team, which SI Canterbury\u00a0supports with monthly letter writing campaigns. We then discussed how we can further support the group and work together to advance women’s rights. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

If you have an interest in human rights and would like to get involved with Amnesty Canterbury’s work, group meetings are held at 7pm on the second Wednesday of every month (except August) at Friends Meeting house, 6 The Friars, Canterbury CT1 2AS. The next meeting is Wednesday 14th June 2017.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
