Today is Human Rights Day!
From the United Nations website:
“Human Rights Day presents an opportunity, every year, to celebrate human rights, highlight a specific issue, and advocate for the full enjoyment of all human rights by everyone everywhere.
This year, the spotlight is on the rights of all people — women, youth, minorities, persons with disabilities, indigenous people, the poor and marginalized — to make their voices heard in public life and be included in political decision-making.”
Find out more information about the day’s history and special events – and ways you can get involved! – on the 2012 Human Rights Day website.
