December 10th is Human Rights Day
About Our Rights, Our Future, Right Now.
Human rights can empower individuals and communities to forge a better tomorrow. By embracing and trusting the full power of human rights as the path to the world we want, we can become more peaceful, equal and sustainable.
This Human Rights Day we focus on how human rights are a pathway to solutions, playing a critical role as a preventative, protective and transformative force for good.
Human rights impact everyone, every day and in this (United Nations) campaign, Our Rights, Our Future, Right Now, will show the tangible impact of human rights by focusing on relevant global issues, showcasing impact, successes and practical solutions. This continues the forward-looking work of UN Human Rights Chief Volker Türk’s vision statement, Human Rights: A Path for Solutions, presented as the wrap up to Human Rights 75, which commemorated the 75th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
