Welcome!

As the UNCW student chapter representing Amnesty International in Wilmington, we work to further the goals of Amnesty International on UNCW's campus, and in the surrounding community. Amnesty International (AI) is the Nobel Peace Prize winning organization that fights for human rights across the globe. The goal of Amnesty International (AI) and of our student chapter is simple: Protect Human Rights.
