On December 10th, 1948, the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR). The UDHR is a milestone document that proclaims the inalienable rights that everyone is entitled to as a human being – regardless of race, color, religion, sex, language, political or other opinion, national or social origin, property, birth, or other status.
This Human Rights Day, join us in commemorating the UDHR as the cornerstone of the international human rights system, which has helped countless people achieve greater freedom and dignity across the globe. You can act from home by participating in one of our advocacy options below.
Feel free to email us at mamalla@unfoundation.org with any questions.
