Your #TortureFreeWorld

"My vision of a #TortureFreeWorld is of all people living in harmonious and just societies rather than divided, discriminatory, violent and unjust societies."

 

Mark Thomson, Secretary General, Association for the Prevention of Torture

"Track Impunity Always (TRIAL) works along with victims of the most atrocious human rights violations, among them torture. We help the victims to get justice for the crimes they suffered. TRIAL's Director Philip Grant gave a voice to these victims in March 2015 in Geneva. Hear three victims' stories through Philip's Grant's voice."

 

TRIAL, Geneva

"My vision of a #TortureFreeWorld is a world where liberty, security and tolerance exceed fear."

 

Oliver Persey, United Kingdom

"A #TortureFreeWorld is a world where personal freedom is a virtue, as is social enhancement. Where religions do not promote violence, nor do they promote torture as a virtue. Where governments that torture do not have the support of the international community, and where the word 'torture' doesn't have a definition in peoples' minds."

 

Feras Fawzi, Jeddah

"A #TortureFreeWorld is a world where all humans are equally treated, and no one in this world is 'greater' or 'lower' than the other."

 

Chandni Lakdawala, India

"My vision of a #TortureFreeWorld is a world that realizes mankind will become the next extinct species if we do not set aside our greed, our anger and begin to work together."

 

Rhonda Cowden, U.S.A.

"Un mundo sin tortura significa que se investiga de manera efectiva y enjuicia todo acto de brutalidad policial."

 

Rights International Spain

"A #TortureFreeWorld is a world where people understand the meaning of love and the beauty of difference, with more words and less violence."

 

Aita Alucardo

"A #TortureFreeWorld is a world without children in immigration detention."

 

End Child Detention

"A #TortureFreeWorld is a world without unnecessary detention."

 

International Detention Coalition

"A #TortureFreeWorld looks like a world of justice and better respect for human dignity."

 

TRIAL

"A step in the right direction towards a #TortureFreeWorld would see immediate closure of Guantánamo and an end to the U.S. legacy of torture."

 

Ben K. Wagner, U.S.A.

"A #TortureFreeWorld is a world where a child's best interests are truly upheld, and NO child is in immigration detention. It is a world where we stop attempting to confront complex human migration with prisons, and a world where refugees, asylum seekers and migrants are seen as benefits rather than threats.

 

Ben Lewis, Advocacy Coordinator, International Detention Coalition

"My vision of a #TortureFreeWorld is a world without solitary confinement, especially of young people. R.I.P. Kalief Browder."

 

Anika Harden, U.S.A.

"A #TortureFreeWorld is a world free of hatred, bigotry and racism, where an individual has the right to justice, freedom of religion, and speech."
