A Life in Human Rights – the story of Amnesty International

Peter Benenson founded a human rights movement that would spread around the world: Amnesty International. Following his death, Peter’s daughter Natasha bequeathed his archive to the British Library, including photos, documents, letters and even a carbon copy of the original idea for AI. This evening’s event is a special celebration of Peter and his life’s work, inviting you to discover an extraordinary life, alongside revealing how archives are created and made accessible to the whole world.Brit
