Amnesty International visited Garden International School (GIS) to help students learn about human rights.

Four workers from the international charity visited GIS, which is based in Ban Chang near Pattaya, on November 25. They took part in Primary and Secondary assemblies, encouraging students to be more aware about world issues. They also showed students how their own voices could be powerful and help bring about change.
