Lately,
the world’s attention has been focused more than ever
on the plight of Africa. And that means that the iron is
hot for us to make our voices heard. Awareness, education,
and advocacy equal accountability and change.
Using the tools of online organizing, Amend.org will run
advocacy campaigns focused on issues that impact our overall
mission of keeping children safe, such as:
• Long-running armed conflicts that have the potential
to be resolved.
• Trade laws, quotas, and tariffs that are biased
against developing nations.
• The misapplication of aid by donor nations.
These are important issues that have an impact on Amend.org’s
mission to prevent childhood injury, because a country that
is under siege (whether by disease, war, economic hardship,
or all three) is a place where children suffer injury.
Please sign up for email updates, and we will let you know
how and when your voice can make a difference.
