International Human Rights organizations care about what AIA does (or doesn't do) about prison design. In strongly worded letters, both the United Nations Special Rapporteur on Torture and Amnesty International encouraged AIA to adopt ADPSR's proposed ethics language banning the design of execution chambers and spaces for prolonged solitary confinement.
This burst of support makes it a good time to share ADPSR's petition with friends and colleagues. Help them to be on the right side of history with Amnesty and the UN, where you already are. Thank you!
