Fourth annual World Day against the death penalty

The fourth annual World Day against the death penalty will be held on 10 October 2006. This year's theme, "The Death Penalty: a Failure of Justice" will highlight the failures of the systems that administer capital punishment via examples including the execution of innocent people, discrimination and unfair trials.

Hundreds of events, debates, concerts, press conferences, radio interviews, exhibitions and plays will be organized around the world to condemn the death penalty. Mark the date in your diaries to bring the message to the world: the death penalty is not justice.
