Amnesty’s global mission is rooted in a fundamental commitment to the rights, dignity, and well-being of every person on Earth. Recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize, Amnesty’s more than 1.8 million members worldwide fight to uphold the ideals enshrined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

Our mission is to build a focus for human rights at UCF. We seek to empower students to actively promote and protect human rights worldwide. We aim to develop a forum for exploration of human rights and for participation in the human rights movement that is consistent with Amnesty International’s core values of independence, impartiality and universality.

The goals of this organization shall mirror those of Amnesty International-USA and be for the promotion of global awareness on campus. To emphasize the motto of “Think Globally, Act Locally” and to educate the student, faculty, and staff of the University are goals that are in line with the mission statement and that of Amnesty International.
