The Journal is published annually and aims to further Amnesty’s mission of shining a light on human rights issues on local, regional, and global levels. By providing an editorial outlet for students and interested contributors, we encourage activism and awareness through original pieces of research, academic articles, personal essays, interviews, as well contemporary and mixed media forms of advocacy such as photojournalism, poetry, and art.
