Political prisoners support network: with an estimated one million political prisoners in the world, the need to offer support and resources to them and their families is urgent. Our political prisoner guide helps prisoners and their families navigate these most difficult situations. It is a unique guide written by people with direct experience in campaigning for unlawfully detained family members. The goal of the year 2024 was to launch the handbook: pathway to freedom: handbook for the liberation of political prisoners.
