since my first post? I had such good intensions. In my defense my feet have barely touched the ground since I started at Amnesty. There’s so many ideas and plans to make, not to mention budgets to secure and staff to recruit.
I’m genuinely excited about next year, I think there’s a real opportunity for us to put human rights at the top of the news agenda. It feels like something is stirring, Witness have just launched a YouTube for human rights in the States http://hub.witness.org and last night saw over 1500 very vocal sisters march through central London calling for an end to violence against women.
Hopefully when the bloggersphere and the placards meet we can start to bring about real change.
