Es ist kein großer Aufwand, einen kleinen Beitrag für Gutes zu leisten.

On Human Rights Day (UN 10.12.1948) I am posting this Urgent Action from Amnesty International. The woman is seriously ill with a heart condition, which affects me personally! I ask the person reading this, YES, I DEMAND: RELEASE NARGES MOHAMMADI IMMEDIATELY!to call and support the Urgent Action….. It doesn’t take much effort to make a small contribution for good.

WebansichtHallo Joachim,heute ist Tag der Menschenrechte und die Allgemeine Erklärung der Menschenrechte wird 75 Jahre! Sie ist die Grundlage der Arbeit von Amnesty International. Gemeinsam mit dir setzen wir uns dafür ein, dass alle Menschen die darin formulierten Rechte auch tatsächlich genießen können.  Menschenrechte erlauben uns, Mensch zu sein. Sich frei zu bewegen. Nicht Willkür oder Gewalt ausgesetzt zu sein. Selbst zu bestimmen, woran wir glauben, wen wir lieben und was wir denken. Sich frei dazu zu äußern – oder etwas für sich zu behalten. Mutig ihre Überzeugung vertreten hat auch die iranische Menschenrechtsverteidigerin Narges Mohammadi. Immer wieder hat sie sich für Frauen- und Menschenrechte im Iran stark gemacht. Dafür wurde sie ins Gefängnis gesteckt und gefoltert. Wirst du jetzt aktiv und forderst ihre sofortige Freilassung?JA, ICH FORDERE: NARGES MOHAMMADI SOFORT FREILASSEN!Heute sollte Narges den Friedensnobelpreis in Oslo entgegennehmen. Doch sie sitzt in Haft und es geht ihr gesundheitlich sehr schlecht. Ihr wird die für sie dringend nötige medizinische Versorgung absichtlich verweigert. So soll sie dazu gebracht werden, sich dem gesetzlichen Kopftuchzwang zu unterwerfen. Narges Mohammadi hat die Bewegung „Frau, Leben, Freiheit“ unterstützt, sich für Familien eingesetzt, deren Angehörige während der Proteste von Sicherheitskräften getötet worden sind, und sexualisierte Gewalt gegen Frauen im Gefängnis aufgedeckt. Machst du dich jetzt für Narges stark?JA, ICH SETZE MICH FÜR NARGES EIN!Nicht nur für Narges Mohammadi, sondern für alle:  Wir müssen die menschenrechtlichen Errungenschaften der letzten 75 Jahre verteidigen! Dabei ist klar: Menschenrechte brauchen Menschen, die sich für sie einsetzen.  Bist du dabei?Danke für deine Unterstützung!

WebviewHello Joachim, today is Human Rights Day and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights is 75 years old!
It is the foundation of Amnesty International’s work. Together with you, we are working to ensure that all people can actually enjoy the rights set out in it.
Human rights allow us to be human. To move freely. Not to be subjected to arbitrariness or violence. To decide for ourselves what we believe in, who we love and what we think. To express ourselves freely – or to keep something to ourselves.
Iranian human rights defender Narges Mohammadi has also courageously stood up for her convictions. She has repeatedly stood up for women’s and human rights in Iran. She was imprisoned and tortured for this.
Are you now taking action and demanding her immediate release? YES, I DEMAND: RELEASE NARGES MOHAMMADI IMMEDIATELY! Today, Narges was supposed to receive the Nobel Peace Prize in Oslo. But she is in prison and her health is very poor. She is being deliberately denied the medical care she urgently needs. In this way, she is being forced to wear a headscarf.
Narges Mohammadi has supported the „Woman, Life, Freedom“ movement, campaigned for families whose relatives were killed by security forces during the protests and exposed sexualized violence against women in prison.
Are you standing up for Narges now?
