                        He is a father, a brother, a son, and a champion of 
human rights.









                        Activist Alaa Abd el-Fattah May Only Have Hours to 
Live. Demand His Release From Unjust Imprisonment!

                        Political activist Alaa Abd el-Fattah has spent the 
better part of the last 9 years imprisoned. His vocal support of democracy 
and opposition to the authoritarian rule that Egypt has been under since 
President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi came to power in 2014 have earned him a life 
unjustly behind bars, separated from his family -- including his 10-year-old 
son, Khalid.



                        For over 200 days, Abd el-Fattah has been intensely 
restricting his diet, protesting Egyptian authorities' refusal to grant him 
British consular access in prison (he holds dual citizenship in the UK and 
Egypt). The United Kingdom's inability to secure his safety, all the while 
coordinating and cooperating with Egypt in preparation for this year's 
COP27, is utterly disgraceful. COP27, an annual international conference to 
address climate change, is being held in Egypt this year, a deeply ironic 
juxtaposition to Abd el-Fattah's imprisonment. As United Nations Special 
Rapporteur on Human Rights and the Environment, David Boyd, aptly put in a 
tweet, "Freedom of speech is a prerequisite for climate justice!"

                        Now, the UK and Egypt have only days, possibly even 
hours, to save Abd el-Fattah's life as he has stopped eating and drinking 
water entirely. Sign the petition to demand the immediate release and safe 
passage of activist Alaa Abd el-Fattah!




                 Thank you,

                        Lauren

                        P.S. Alaa Abd el-Fattah is unjustly imprisoned in 
Egypt for his outspoken support of democracy and basic freedoms. Now he is 
dying on a hunger strike. Sign the petition.
