On 10 December every year,
Human Rights Day commemorates the date on which the United Nations General
Assembly adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, proclaiming its
principles as the “common standard of achievement for all peoples and all
nations.”
This year’s slogan, Human
Rights 365, encompasses the idea that every day is Human Rights
Day. It celebrates the fundamental proposition in the Universal Declaration
that each one of us, everywhere, at all times is entitled to the full range of
human rights, that human rights belong equally to each of us and bind us
together as a global community with the same ideals and values.
