Declaration of Human Rights

To celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human
Rights, Amnesty International is collecting signatures for a pledge to
support this very important United Nations declaration. Amnesty already
has 3 million signatures (real and virtual) world wide, and wants 8
million.

The UN Secretary General has already agreed to be present either in
person or live by satellite to receive the pledge as a tangible
statement of the people of the world's commitment to an international
agenda of human rights.

The most simple way to add your name to the pledge is to:

Send an e-mail to udhr50th@amnesty.org.au Put YOUR NAME in the SUBJECT
Put the following text in the message:

'I support the rights and freedoms in the Universal Declaration of Human

Rights for all people, everywhere'.

PLEASE FORWARD THIS MESSAGE TO AS MANY PEOPLE AS YOU CAN.
