CAMPAIGNING MANUAL Amnesty International amnesty international CAMPAIGNING MANUAL amnesty international CAMPAIGNING MANUAL Amnesty International Amnesty International is a worldwide campaigning movement that works to promote all the human rights enshrined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and other international standards. In particular, Amnesty International campaigns to free all prisoners of conscience; ensure fair and prompt trials for political prisoners; abolish the death penalty, torture and other cruel treatment of prisoners; end political killings and "disappearances"; and oppose human rights abuses by opposition groups. Amnesty International has around a million members and supporters in 162 countries and territories. Activities range from public demonstrations to letter-writing, from human rights education to fundraising concerts, from individual appeals on a particular case to global campaigns on a particular issue. There are around 8,000 Amnesty International groups, including local groups, youth or student groups, and professional groups in 80 countries. Many of these work on long-term assignments concerning more than 7,000 prisoners of conscience and other victims of human rights violations. Around 80,000 people are linked to Amnesty International's Urgent Action network, which mobilizes appeals on behalf of individuals whose lives or well being are feared to be in immediate danger. Amnesty International is impartial and independent of any government, political persuasion or religious creed. Amnesty International is financed largely by subscriptions and donations from its worldwide membership. amnesty international CAMPAIGNING MANUAL Amnesty International Publications This second edition of the Amnesty International Campaigning Manual has been published in response to demand and has been slightly revised to include a new section in Chapter 10, Outreach/Working on Lesbian and Gay Human Rights. Very few changes have been made to other parts of the Manual and most of the text remains as it first appeared in the 1997 edition; as a result, some information may now be out-of-date. A third edition of the Manual, which will incorporate full revision and updating, is planned for the future and any comments on the contents of the manual would be very welcome contributions to that process.

This manual aims to pass on the experience of these campaigners in an accessible format. We hope it will become a well-thumbed reference book for all those campaigning for human rights. Although the manual stresses that all parts of AI's work, such as fundraising, campaigning and organization, should be integrated, the book has been divided up into self- contained sections. This will, we hope, make it easier to use and enable activists to photocopy or refer to particular sections as the need arises. This manual has been written primarily for AI campaigners. However, it should prove useful for all those involved in the movement and perhaps for some people in other campaigning organizations. It is an external document which can be given to people outside AI. The book has been designed to be relevant for those in small as well as large AI Sections, and for newcomers to campaigning as well as veterans. Crucially, it is not a blueprint for action. Rather, it is a guide. Some techniques may apply to particular campaigns or Sections, some may not. However, many of the guiding principles – such as the need to prepare a strategy in advance and evaluate any action -- are universally applicable. The Amnesty International Campaigning Manual is the product of a special project at the International Secretariat (IS) carried out by Patrick Earle. Special thanks go to him for preparing, organizing and writing the manual. Thanks also go to the authors of the US Section’s Campaigning Manual for Groups, to the Dutch and UK Sections for providing materials, and to the Australian, Polish, South Korean and many other AI structures that offered advice or examples of their work. The Campaigning Program at the IS had overall responsibility for the project. For more information AI's campaigning is constantly developing and evolving. Its diversity and flexibility help make it effective. Therefore this manual can never be definitive. To find out about any current policy or to obtain advice about campaigning methods or particular actions, consult the appropriate body of AI. 2 Amnesty International Campaigning Manual If there is an AI Section or coordinating structure in your country, contact the Section office or the appropriate coordinator. If they cannot answer your question, they will forward it to the IS in London. If there is no one to contact in your country, contact the IS directly at: Amnesty International, Campaigning Program, International Secretariat, 1 Easton Street, London WC1X 0DW, United Kingdom

  • Going Dutch Drug Policy at the Crossroads
    POLICY ESSAY DRUG MARKET CONFLICTS IN AMSTERDAM Going Dutch Drug Policy at the Crossroads Craig Reinarman University of California—Santa Cruz ince the 1970s, Dutch drug law and policy have moved away from punitive prohi- bition toward a harm reduction model, with the objective of minimizing the harms S associated with both drug abuse and drug policy. Scott Jacques, Richard Rosenfeld, Richard Wright, and Frank van Gemert (2016, this issue) investigate whether the de facto decriminalization of cannabis in the Netherlands, with its semi-licit system of licensed retail sales in “coffeeshops,” reduces the crime and violence often found in illicit drug markets. I say “de facto decriminalization” and “semi-licit system” because, as the authors note, the Dutch have made it effectively legal for anyone older than 18 years of age to walk in the front door of coffeeshops and buy small amounts of cannabis, but it remains illegal to bring supplies of that cannabis in the back door of coffeeshops. This “back door problem,” as the Dutch call it, has caused trouble for coffeeshop owners and growers and no shortage of debate in Parliament. But for decades, coffeeshops have functioned reasonably well within this legally ambiguous space, with cannabis finding its way to consumers with few problems and little policing. To contextualize Jacques et al.’s (2016) contribution, it may be useful to recall how cannabis was criminalized and why the Dutch departure from criminalization is historically significant. Until the Netherlands shifted its drug policy toward harm reduction (avant la lettre) in 1976, cannabis was prohibited around the world on pain of criminal punish- ment (Levine, 2003).

  • Chapter 13 in the Best Interest of the Child: International Regulation of Transnational Corporations *
    HARNESSING GLOBALISATION FOR CHILDREN: A report to UNICEF Chapter 13 In the best interest of the child: International regulation of transnational corporations * Judith Richter with Elizabeth Satow** Summary: This chapter uses two case studies to demonstrate the urgent need for international regulation of transnational corporations. Its examination of the processes of regulation of marketing for breastmilk substitutes and for regulating tobacco provides an overview of the historical process of regulations. Both industries have used aggressive advertising to promote their products and have withheld information that would have helped consumers make informed choices about these products. What is particularly noteworthy about these sectors is that their advertising has an impact on human health. They have used similar tactics to prevent and obstruct global regulation, including the gathering of information on opponents, threats of violence, the use of consultants to undermine the work of the World Health Organization and trade threats made via governments. The current international system is skewed towards free trade – not human well-being. For this reason there is a need for strong and enforceable external regulation for industries whose products can harm public health. Self-regulation, and co-regulation, are not enough. JEL: D18, F23, I18, K32 * This study presents the views of its authors and not the official UNICEF position in this field. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This is chapter 13 of the overall study “Harnessing Globalisation for Children” edited by Giovanni Andrea Cornia ** Elizabeth Satow adapted much of this chapter from Judith Richter, Holding Corporations: Accountable Corporate Conduct, International Codes, and Citizen Action (in press). Zed Books. The section on tobacco was researched and written by Elizabeth Satow.

DRAFT October 19, 2010 CLINICAL LEGAL EDUCATION IN DUTCH LEGAL CULTURE: CLASHES OF TRADITION, TOLERANCE AND PROGRESS IN GLOBAL LAW’S CAPITAL Richard J. Wilson* Abstract This paper examines the current context of legal education within Dutch legal culture as a case study focusing on the growing role of clinical legal education in the Netherlands, a progressive country in Western Europe, where traditional legal education has held sway for centuries. The Dutch experience with clinical legal education, though limited, is expanding even as the traditional apprenticeship phase of law training there is undergoing major reform, responsive to the growth of “big law.” These reforms are largely attributable to a history of innovation and openness in Dutch legal culture, one dimension of which is the general acknowledgement that the Netherlands has become the international law capital of the world.

  • Strategy, Jointness, Capacity Institutional Requirements for Supporting Security Sector Reform
    STUDY Strategy, Jointness, Capacity Institutional Requirements for Supporting Security Sector Reform KONSTANTIN BÄRWALDT (ED.) November 2018 n Promoting security and justice in conflict-affected and fragile contexts is in many ways central to women’s and men’s lives. In their external engagements Western donors often seek to address the security needs by enhancing the capacities of lo- cal security institutions and by promoting reforms in the respective security sectors (police, military, justice authorities, executive and ministries, parliaments, oversight bodies) and the overarching governance system. For the purpose of this study, all these activities are broadly defined as »security sector reform« (SSR). n Unfortunately, empirical evidence suggests that most of these SSR programs, in par- ticular those aimed at training and equipping security institutions, have not produced the desired results. When it comes to the implementation of SSR programmes, it is striking that the political nature of security provision and governance in fragile and transformative countries is often not matched by an equally political strategy on the part of the Western donors. The ways in which donors plan, organize, operate and implement their SSR programs is often fundamentally at odds with the politically dynamic nature of change processes in recipient states. n Lacking results are mainly due to the complex and turbulent political environments in which the initiatives are pursued. But it is also owing to the fact that governments and international organizations are weakly positioned to plan, implement, evaluate and adapt their SSR engagements. n By comparing the SSR policies of the USA, Netherlands, Germany, France and the United Kingdom – and two international organisations – the European Union and the African Union – this study derives recommendations about how implementing bureaucracies can develop and implement an urgently needed »political approach« in their SSR programmes.
