AiCandle – Amnesty International’s iPhone application

In the early 1960s, Amnesty International started one of the first social networks of activists around the world. Today as then, human rights activists use their communications tools to effect change where they can not be present in person – from writing letters to using their iPhones.

Across the globe, people like you are appalled by human rights abuses and are standing up for justice and humanity.
