With this campaign “It happens not here. But now”, Amnesty International, Switzerland wants to call in consciousness that the human rights in many places are hurt daily. These are not abstract findings, for humans concerned on the posters, it’s bitterly experienced reality. Amnesty would like to sensitize how important it is to activeate yourself and protect human rights. As you may know, Switzerland is consisted of Cantons (regions), where every region has it’s own primar language: Italian, German, French or Romansh – this is why the posters are in different languages… Check the image gallery inside this post for more pictures! I would like to thank personaly to Sandro Feuillet, for providing us with these pictures. Thanks Sandro!

dg…What the heck man? I think your one of those people that need to see the real thing. Open your eyes dude seriously…if you lived in one of those poverty stricken countries we’re your scared someone’s going to cut your throat open while you sleep, you’d be disgusted at what you just said. Ever seen Blood Diamonds? Think about ten year old kids marching off to war to be slaughtered. Throwing money at them isn’t doing anything. Great illusion too by the way. I respect that.
Think for a moment…seriously…
That’s just awesome..strong message..great campaign..if i saw them i’d run for my life thinking that they were real!
Those pictures are so sad :(.
It’s spreading a really good message.
“biclops said…
They could have positioned the last one better, it looks like he’s gonna take a dump on the phone.
After seeing that i wouldn’t want to use that phone.”
I CANNOT believe that you just said that! Just shows how IGNORANT some people can be. The people that are represented by these bilboards are REAL, they are SUFFERING right now. And you JOKE about a man being TORTURED?
I can see how Guantanamo Bay prison and George Bush can still get away with such human rights ABUSES as people sit and LAUGH at the images.

some of them are really sad.
these would scare me!!!
?!They look transperant!
amazing.
great campaign, the right message, great “art”work.
Incredible ad-campaign! Too bad it must too much work/expensive to do on a larger scale.. Would be an eye-opener around the western world
Impresionante, lo peor es que son imágenes, pero representan situaciones reales que pasan al lado de nuestra “casa”
I love the idea! I wish they put that up around here! but it would be bad for children to see some of the bloody ones, some kids can handle it but some can't.
But the Point is really Clear.
It could happen anywhere! and its happening wether we like it or not. People should do something about it but they wont, im particating in the fight against world hunger, im a vegitarian & i help out more when i can. I just cant believe how ignorant people are its kind of sad
when I saw to first pictue I thought it was real
wow thats really kool
It’s a very good message, I think. It happens, not here, but now.I think it’s very true.
People are suffering all over the world in so many ways, it may not be where you are right there, but it’s happeneing somewhere in the world right at that moment. It’s very true and shocking.
Thank you for uploading these. [x]
It’s sad to think that things like these are happening around the world. It just takes your breath away.
whoa…that looks so real, and really touching.
i think messages like this should be more known.
this is actually happening, and tht’s rlly sad.
