Adbusters Adbusters
Pull the wool over your own eyes with the Adbusters, whose assault on consumer culture is well displayed on this exciting and innovative site. You'll love the homepage and the spoof ads, culture-jamming and "hacktivism."
Amnesty Amnesty
The international human rights group site has regular news updates. There's a bazaar with publications and briefings you can buy online, campaign news, and a video archive. There are also links to your local groups in Glasgow South or West.
Council of the European Union EU
This is a pretty basic site but it is information-rich, with masses of links, information and contacts. Its features include an action area, a discussion forum and a "quote of the week."
Drop the Debt Drop the Debt
Live Aid raised millions. Africa repays millions a week. That's it really. Bob Geldof launches Drop the Debt's controversial new ad campaign on his return from Genoa, Italy where international celebrities and footballers took part in Match of the Heart for debt cancellation.
European Parliament European Parliament
Here you'll find news, MEPs, elections, live broadcasts, rich multimedia library, other facts about the European Parliament and information about the office. This website is available in multiple languages.
Human Rights Watch Human Rights
Global human rights issues are covered here. Anything from arms, children's rights, human rights, refugees, international justice and prisons.
Oxfam Oxfam
From emergency appeals to development and fair trade issues, Oxfam's site allows you to get an overview. Their latest campaign is for people to donate their old mobile phone.
Political Resources across the European Union EU
This is a portal to all EU related material, including election information and a comprehensive listing of European parties.
War on Want War on Want
Set up in 1951 by Harold Wilson and Victor Gollancz, War on Want's aims haven't changed. According to Vice President Roy Hattersley: "War on Want exists because in the developing world there is a need. The need is for solidarity not charity. For a hand-up not a hand-out. For an end to the root causes of poverty not just its symptoms."
