ua.amnesty.ch 2010 – 2023 Change of the Urgent Action website

4th december 2023
The Urgent Actions were published on ua.amnesty.ch for 13 years and are now integrated into amnesty.ch.

From 2010 to 2023, Amnesty International Switzerland published all Urgent Actions (UAs) on ua.amnesty.ch in English, German and French. Writers were able to set up an interest profile and received e-mail notifications of new actions or follow-up actions (Further Information FIs).

The amnesty.ch websites are being revised in a comprehensive relaunch project (until around 2025). During this time, Urgent Actions with less «functionality» will be published on amnesty.ch.

You can subscribe to weekly e-mail alerts announcing the latest Urgent Actions in either french or german

The old UA website is accessible as an archive at ua-archive.amnesty.ch.

If you have any questions or suggestions: Write to us.
