World Day5th World Day against the death penalty: the world decides!
Article by Thomas Hubert published on June 29th, 2007On October 10th, 2007, the World Day against the Death Penalty focussed on the proposed UN General Assembly resolution for a universal moratorium on executions. The proposal would save lives and give the population of retentionist states an opportunity to see for themselves that a pause in death sentences does not lead to higher crime rates.

A resolution by the UN highest political body would be an important international milestone in the campaign to abolish the death penalty worldwide and would carry considerable moral weight.
This initiative has already gathered the support of 5 millions people worldwide.
You can support the momentum to end capital punishment and ask your country to support this resolution.
