The Peruvian Section of Amnesty International (AI Perú) has been working in Peru since 1970. It has more than 2,500 members and about 200,000 supporters. We develop public mobilization and awareness campaigns, lobbying authorities and human rights education programs. We are working closely with the rest of the Amnesty International movement. We seek alliances with local organizations to influence governmental, intergovernmental authorities and transnational companies, and generate changes in laws, policies and practices that affect the full exercise of human rights of people in Peru and in the world. It was only in 1982 that it was established as a legal entity after its first AGM
