Setting the context:
On 10th of December 2007, Human Rights Day, the Secretary-General launched a year-long campaign in which all parts of the United Nations family take part in the lead-up to the 60th birthday of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) on Human Rights Day 2008.
The theme of the campaign, “Dignity and justice for all of us,” reinforces the vision of the Declaration as a commitment to universal dignity and justice rather than something that should be viewed as a luxury or a wish-list. Its core values, inherent human dignity, non-discrimination, equality, fairness and universality, apply to everyone, everywhere, and always. The Declaration is universal, enduring, and vibrant, and it concerns us all. Since its adoption in 1948, the Declaration has been and continues to be a source of inspiration for national and international efforts to promote and protect human rights and fundamental freedoms.
Methodology:
Questions are universally the best way to engage people in a reflection. The aim of these workshops is to propose personal reflective questions on human rights with the objective that it will provide an opportunity for participants to experience their rights from within. In a broader context, participants will be engaged in exploring more deeply the whole concept of human rights.
