[sustran] Declaration of Human Rights

[Christine Laurence & Peter Wright]

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 (which would be 1% of the world's
population). The UN Secretary General has already agreed  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 email to

udhr50th at amnesty.org.au

* Put YOUR NAME in the SUBJECT and the following text in the message:
"I support the rights and freedoms in the Universal Declaration of
Human Rights for all people, everywhere."

 * Forward this message to as many people as you can.
