Amnesty International's Urgent Action Network provides an effective and rapid response to urgent situations involving prisoners of conscience, detainees, and other threatened individuals. Members of the Urgent Action Network compose and send telegrams, letters, e-mails, and faxes to many government officials who are in a position to ensure the safety and fair treatment of those whom AI seeks to protect.

As soon as Amnesty International learns that a person is in imminent danger of human rights abuse, we alert members of the Urgent Action network in over 70 countries.
Urgent Action network members then compose and send letters, e-mails, faxes and telegrams to the officials - whether presidents or prison governors - who have the power to stop the abuse.
Over the following hours, days and weeks, these officials receive thousands of individually written messages. These are a powerful signal that their actions are being witnessed by an international audience deeply concerned about the fate of those involved.
By joining the Urgent Action network, you can ensure that Amnesty International continues to protect individuals around the world. For more information, go to AI USA Urgent Action Center.
