International Human Rights Day
AWARENESS
On December 10, 1948, the United Nations adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as an “indivisible standard for all peoples.” Today we are both honoring those who have put their lives on the line for human rights and building up future human rights leaders.
Use these resources to teach about human rights on December 10 and share them with your colleagues.
