Mauritania: Free Anti-Slaveray Activists: Biram Dah Abeid, Brahim Bilal, Djiby Sow - Deadline: Ongoing ONLINE PETITION

Mauritania fully outlawed slavery in 2007 but has systematically failed to end it in practice. It has fallen to activists like Biram to fight for people’s’ freedom and they face regular harassment and harsh treatment in their campaigning. Mauritania has now jailed more anti-slavery activists than slave owners. Biram Dah Abeid,Brahim Bilal, and Djiby Sow have been sentenced to two years in jail for protesting against slavery in Rosso, south Mauritania. Click here to call on Mauritania’s government to free Biram and other anti-slavery activists.
