Amnesty International's Protect the Human campaign centers on standing up for humanity and human rights in general. The US version of the site is a full-flash, animated experience including a google map mash-up where users can post video, text, photos and other data promoting human rights related events and activities.
The site is built primarily in Flash with the Flex and Google Maps SDKs being utilized to develop a custom map solution and ASRA to push data to the Flash/Flex apps. Zend Framework was utilized to develop a small content management system where admins can remove flagged posts. Users can search/toggle map posts and click the map to add their own post in the form of links to images and youtube video.
