2). We would like to better support our Amnesty International (AI) global comms channels, which have to include a stronger gender, racial justice and intersectionality approach according to our Strategic Framework, and could benefit from the teams’ expertise;

3). We are exploring a project on narrative changing, which is transversal to all of the work of the Programme, and we would like to explore further AI’s role.
