Today, on Human Rights Day, we reflect on this year’s powerful theme: Our Rights, Our Future, Right Now. Human rights are the foundation of a just, equitable, and sustainable world. They empower individuals, protect the most vulnerable, and enable communities to thrive. Yet, many continue to face systemic inequality, discrimination, and the denial of their basic rights. At Aide à l'Enfance de l'Inde et du Népal (AEIN), we are committed to working alongside marginalized communities to defend human rights and promote justice, equality, and dignity for all. The time to act is now—because the choices we make today determine the future we leave behind. Together, we can build a world where everyone’s rights are respected and upheld. #HumanRightsDay #OurRightsOurFuture #ActNow #JusticeForAll #Solidarity

Human Rights Day is celebrated around the world on December 10th every year. It focuses on the fundamental rights and liberties of people and advocates for the rights that transcend nationality, gender, ethnicity, race, sexuality, religion, or any other distinctions. Following World War II, there was a growing call to ensure that the atrocities committed during the war were not repeated. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights was adopted by the United Nations General Assembly in 1948. UDHR encapsulates the common standard that every country and person should strive for in terms of human rights. The National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) was established on October 12, 1993. The Commission has also made several interventions on key issues of human rights which include child labour, prison reforms, right to health, right to food, mental healthcare, rights of persons with disability, sanitation, and rights of women. This year’s theme, “Our Rights, Our Future,” reminds us of the fundamental role of human rights in shaping a just society. Freedom of expression is an essential enabler of a well-functioning democracy. It allows civil society, the media, and citizens to hold government and corporate power accountable. #HumanRightsDay2024 #HumanRightsDay #HumanRights #PrisonReform #MentalHealthcare #EndFoodInsecirity #Sanitation #WomensRights #EndChildLabor #DisabilityRights #RightToHealth

We are all born equal in dignity and rights." – Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Today, we celebrate International Human Rights Day, marking the end of the global campaign on violence against women and girls, including sex workers and other marginalized individuals who often face intersecting forms of discrimination. The theme "Our rights, our future, right now" serves as a strong reminder that, amidst rising conflicts, social inequalities, and environmental crises worldwide, individuals and states must reaffirm the universality of human rights. Let us embody values of equality, freedom, and dignity that unite us all and build a global community where justice and fairness are abounding, regardless of one’s background, identity, or profession. #HumanRightsDay2024 #16DaysOfActivism2024

Rights to all...... Since the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR), every person, regardless of color, race, ethnicity, or gender has rights that need to be respected. Lest we forget, there is no right that contravenes the right of the other person. We are all human and, as such, deserve respect and dignity. Today is Human Rights Day. This day is not just a reminder of the rights we are entitled to; it is a call to action, a rallying cry to confront the injustices that persist in our world. One of the most pervasive and insidious violations of human rights that we face is gender-based violence. It affects millions of individuals, tearing apart families and communities, and leaving scars that often last a lifetime. From domestic abuse to sexual assault, from human trafficking to harmful cultural practices, gender-based violence is a violation of human rights that knows no borders, cultures, or socio-economic status. Stories of survivors are a stark reminder that we can not remain silent. We must be the voices of those who have been silenced, the advocates for those who feel powerless. As we commemorate Human Rights Day, let us remember that the fight against gender-based violence is a fight for human rights. It is a fight for justice, for equality, and for the future, we envision - a future where everyone can live free from fear and violence. Together, let us raise our voices, take action, and stand firm in our resolve to end gender-based violence. Let us honor those who have suffered by ensuring that their experiences ignite a movement of change. Let this be the moment we commit ourselves to a world where everyone, regardless of gender can live with dignity, safety, and respect. #HumanRightsDay #NoExcuse #UnitetoEndViolence #inspiringalifeofimpact #gracioussolutions
