75 years after the adoption of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights: The Academy of Human Rights and International Humanitarian Law continues its commitment
In a milestone that marked a global commitment to freedom, equality, and dignity 75 years ago, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) established a global standard to protect the fundamental rights of all human beings. This Declaration, born out of the devastation of World War II, continues to be a source of inspiration and action for various institutions committed to promoting and protecting human rights worldwide.
The Academy, in line with the principles of the Declaration, promotes the idea that human rights education is a fundamental pillar for building just and equitable societies. Its commitment to training in this field aligns perfectly with the legacy of the UDHR, providing a solid foundation to understand and apply human rights in global and local contexts.
Ina world where challenges like discrimination, intolerance, and injustice persist, the Academy of Human Rights and International Humanitarian Law stands out as a beacon of education and action, reminding everyone that the fight for human rights is ongoing and that education is a vital tool.
