Today is International Human Rights Day, commemorating the adoption of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights by the UN General Assembly on 10 December 1948. It has been a mainly positive instrument for governments and people across the world despite the many convention breaches and conflicts we have witnessed indirectly, and sometimes sadly directly since 1948. Just shows how fragile humanity can be and yet with each breach, it confirms the need for the protection of rights especially with the most vulnerable people in society. Social work is a profession that explicitly promotes human rights. Let's not give up hope for a peaceful and a sustainable world. ?? ?????????? #UDHR #HumanRights International Federation of Social Workers BASW UK BASW Diaspora Social Workers SIG Social Work England

What are #humanrights all about? ?? On the occasion of Human Rights Day, United Nations Human Rights chief Volker Türk shares a compelling message: "Human rights are about people. About you and your life, your needs and wants and fears. Your hopes for the present and the future. A safe home, food and clean water, health care, education, decent work and a livable minimum wage. (...) Human rights are simple, powerful ideas that motivate people to stand up for themselves." Human rights are for #everyone #everywhere.

What is the Universal Declaration of Human Rights? : Protecting the Rights of Every Individual Globally "Almost 70 years ago the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights as a common human rights standard for all everyone, everywhere. This video provides the history, content and ongoing significance of the document." #HumanRights #UnitedNations #HumanRightsForAll #StandUp4HumanRights #UnitedNations Source/Watch Video for more details:

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) stands as one of the most significant milestones in human history, a declaration of fundamental dignity and equality that transcends borders, cultures, and ideologies. Adopted nearly 70 years ago by the United Nations General Assembly, it remains a vital cornerstone in the global pursuit of justice, freedom, and respect for the rights of every individual. The UDHR was created in the wake of immense global conflict, particularly the atrocities of World War II, to ensure that the rights and freedoms of individuals would never again be disregarded. It was a bold proclamation of universal principles—equal and inalienable rights to life, liberty, and security for all people, regardless of their race, religion, or background. This document has continued to shape the legal and moral fabric of international law and human rights practice, guiding everything from the creation of new international agreements to the work of grassroots organizations advocating for justice. However, as we reflect on its enduring relevance, we must also acknowledge the challenges that remain. Despite its widespread adoption, millions of people still suffer from human rights violations in various forms—be it through discrimination, poverty, violence, or oppression. The challenge lies not only in recognizing the rights laid out by the UDHR but also in translating these rights into concrete action that affects real change. The ongoing significance of the UDHR lies in its call to action for all nations and peoples to work toward the realization of these rights. It is a living document that serves as a beacon of hope and a reminder of our shared humanity, pushing us to continually evaluate and evolve our commitments to human dignity, equality, and freedom. As global citizens, it is crucial for us to reflect on the values embedded in the UDHR and work towards creating a world where every individual’s rights are respected and upheld. This work is not just for governments or international bodies; it is a responsibility shared by each of us, in our communities and beyond, to advocate for human rights, challenge injustices, and ensure that the rights enshrined in this declaration are upheld for all. #HumanRights #GlobalJustice #Equality #Freedom #UniversalDeclarationOfHumanRights #GlobalAdvocacy #UnitedNations #SocialJustice
