Free the political prisoners in Colombia
There are hundreds of activists that continue to languish in Colombia's prisons either without charge or due process and include trade unionists, student activists, community and indigenous leaders and human rights defenders - all imprisoned for their opposition to Colombian government policies. Join with us to help get these prisoners released.
These activists put their lives on the line and face danger every day to fight for fundamental human, social and economic rights. Many have been jailed often without charge or due process and held for years without trial. Leaders of civil society organisations and community groups are particularly targeted by the Colombian authorities as a tactic to weaken or destroy such organisations.
