Amnesty International’s Campaign for Individuals at Risk

From his office in Austin, Texas, Ashber Corporation president Bruce Furst acquires music content licenses for films and negotiates licensing and distribution for film soundtracks. A licensing professional with 25 years of experience, Bruce Furst also remains active in human rights initiatives through his support of Amnesty International, a global human rights organization that advocates for implementation of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and oversees initiatives such as the Individuals at Risk (IAR) campaign.

A campaign that strives to protect the rights of individuals worldwide, IAR supports specific individuals or groups facing adversity or threats to their lives due to their personal beliefs or economic standing. IAR also encourages ordinary citizens to become active participants in providing hope to people denied basic human rights by their government or local law agencies. Through the campaign, Amnesty International aids prisoners of conscience, persons facing persecution for their sexual orientation, and victims of social injustice due to discriminatory laws. Goals of the IAR campaign include winning improvements for selected persons or groups and heightening the visibility of Amnesty’s work for the individual.

Those receiving individual support from IAR efforts become known as Amnesty International cases, which may consist of a single person, a group, or a community. Amnesty selects cases based on the severity of the situation and whether the case’s success will positively impact a greater number of people or communities.
