Celebrate International Human Rights Day

The UN General Assembly proclaimed 10 December as Human Rights Day in 1950 to bring to the attention ‘of the peoples of the world’ the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as the common standard of achievement for all peoples and all nations.
"I call on States to honour their obligation to protect human rights every day of the year. I call on people to hold their governments to account. "
.....UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon
