We continue to
collect signatures for a
world-wide Moratorium on the Death Penalty
10 million signatures in the year 2000 to stop the death penalty worldwide.
 With your contribution, in just over a year we’ve managed to
collect 2,000,000 signatures, coming from 128 countries. Each signature represents a
conscience which has been won over to the value of life and right; together they represent
a movement of opinion and international pressure which has overcome cultural, geographical
and political boundaries, and the barriers of religious belief.
Such a movement must grow: it represents an
orientation for those who are undecided, a reference for those who have been working for
some time to end the death penalty, and a sign of hope in countries which have only
recently begun to question this useless and cruel barbarism that is the death penalty. |
