Webinar: The Global Refugee Crisis - Jan 20th at 9:00pm Eastern Time

Dear Amnesty Supporter,

2015 has seen the worst refugee crisis since World War II, with over 19.5 million refugees across the globe. Yet, instead of open arms for refugees desperately seeking shelter, we have seen an increase in anti-refugee rhetoric in the United States coupled with Islamophobia. This hate and fear-mongering has no place in our country—we must speak out for human rights!

Amnesty is calling for a dramatic shift in the way the international community deals with the global refugee crisis in 2016.

Join us Wednesday, January 20th at 9:00PM (Eastern) and learn how you can ensure that our country is one is which human rights are upheld and refugees are welcome.

In our webinar, we will outline the global refugee crisis and what you can do to call for changes—both at the national and local level. You can make a real and direct difference in the lives of refugees.
Sincerely,

Tarah Demant
