War Resisters International can keep you informed about conscientious objectors:

CO Action alerts

The CO-Alert email list is specifically for alerts in cases of conscientious objection or #antimilitarist action. CO-Alerts are sent out by email as soon as the WRI office receives information on the #imprisonment or trial of a conscientious objector, are a powerful tool to mobilise #support and #protest. We provide an email contact form, so you can quickly and simply contact the authorities, in support of a #nonviolent #activist who is facing #repression.

In many countries, #prison is still the fate of conscientious objectors (COs). Thousands of COs are still in prison -- in South Korea, Israel, Finland, Colombia, and many other countries. Despite many countries having introduced laws on conscientious objection, many COs still face imprisonment, because they either don't fit into the authorities' criteria, or they refuse to perform any substitute service. War Resisters' International supports conscientious objectors who are imprisoned because of their conscientious objection, or face repression by the state or state-like entities.
