The Universal Declaration of Human Rights may be 75 years old. Its ideals still stand. But they are under severe pressure. In Gaza, in Ukraine. We must and shall continue to defend humanity and solidarity.

Human rights – political, civil, economic, social & cultural – are the key to solving many of the world’s interlinked problems. All governments must fulfil the commitment they made in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

77 years ago today, Eleanor Roosevelt led passage of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Last month, Trump deleted human rights from the U.S. National Security Strategy. Our leaders ought to care about moral principles & human rights—not just their own money and power.
