Task page 178

2. Taking action
Look back on the list on page 175 ("Seven Ways to be Heard). Which of these methods does Malin use in her role as Amnesty activist?

Audio: A Case of Injustice


Malin used method number 7: Influence the authorities.
She was one of many Amnesty activists who sent letters to Ethiopian authorities, because they wanted to release an Ethiopean woman. She was a judge, who became unpopular with the government. She was thrown into prison for expressing her opinion.

Amnesty International work locally and globally, and contribute in different ways. They use the social media (method number 2), they make petitions (method number 5) and they also influence the authorities (method number 7).
