In early 2017, I attended an event hosted by Amnesty International Toronto. While attending the event, I was incredibly struck by the idea of being able to help people facing injustices around the world and wanted to get involved myself.
After continuously attending Amnesty International gatherings throughout the year, I applied for and became a National Youth Organizer for Amnesty International Canada. As an organizer, I have helped plan and facilitate events, such as movie screenings and letter writing sessions, as well as spoken to audiences to inform and engage them in Amnesty campaigns.
