關於我們

長期參與人權運動、司法改革及死刑冤案救援的民間司法改革基金會台灣人權促進會台北律師公會東吳大學張佛泉人權研究中心等團體,眼見來不及為冤死的江國慶和盧正平反,更有感於為救援蘇建和案、徐自強案當事人與死神拔河的急迫感,決定除了個案救援,更應該從制度上改革,才能避免無辜的人民繼續枉死,阻止國家繼續使用死刑這個暴力手段,因此在2003年邀集更多團體和個人,成立以推動廢除死刑為終極目標的民間聯盟,成立之初以「死刑替代聯盟」為名,後於2006年更名為「台灣廢除死刑推動聯盟」,期許有一天台灣能夠成為一個沒有死刑的國家。

八月了。終於拿到手的畢業證書還躺在抽屜夾層裡,剛離開校園不久的新鮮人,有些登入國軍online,有些被學貸現實拋入社會。邪盟辦公室(即將過新鮮期)的新人法務專員,被我們找來分享了他第一個沒有暑假的八月。

Taiwan Alliance to End the Death Penalty

Mission Statement
The Taiwan Alliance to End the Death Penalty Taiwan (TAEDP) is a coalition of various local abolitionist non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and research institutes.Launched in September 2003 by the Taiwan Association for Human Rights (TAHR), the Judicial Reform Foundation (JRF), Fujen University John Paul II Peace Institute, the Chang Fo-chuan Center for the Study of Human Rights, the Taipei Bar Association (TBA) and the Peacetime Foundation, the Alliance promotes the reform of Taiwan’s penal system and advocates the abolition of the death penalty.   The Alliance was formed to stress and promote the absolute value of life and human dignity as core to the protection and promotion of human rights. Profoundly understanding that society has yet to be exposed to the debate concerning death penalty abolition, and that the general public seems to support capital punishment as a form of revenge against perpetrators of major crimes, the alliance aims to create an open discussion forum for society on various abolition issues. Furthermore, it advocates shaping a better penal system that both respects the value of life while truly compensating the victims so as to really uphold justice and safeguard human rights for all.
