Back soon! Petition maintenance in progress

Sorry, the petition for Julian Assange is experiencing technical difficulties and has temporarily disappeared.

You'll be able to take action for Julian Assange again 11am Friday 21 February. Please come back!



Rest assured – Amnesty International has researchers on the ground for when these things happen. We're looking into it right now.

Did you know that in many countries, people can disappear just for peacefully standing up for what they believe in? Luckily, supporters like you shine a light in these dark places and ensure that – unlike web pages – people can’t just vanish. In fact, you can act right now to help someone else experiencing human rights violations.
