International Human Rights Day Observed with Events Nationwide Under This Year’s Theme ‘Our Rights, Our Future, Right Now’

Today, countries around the world are marking International Human Rights Day with a series of events and programs to honor the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR). This year’s theme, “Our Rights, Our Future, Right Now,” highlights the urgent need for collective action to ensure that human rights are upheld for all people, now and in the future.

Governments, organizations, and advocacy groups have organized rallies, seminars, and public awareness campaigns to emphasize the importance of protecting and promoting human rights across the globe. The day serves as a reminder of the fundamental rights that every individual is entitled to, regardless of race, gender, nationality, or any other status.

International Human Rights Day is observed annually on December 10 to commemorate the adoption of the UDHR by the United Nations General Assembly in 1948. This declaration remains a cornerstone of global human rights efforts, advocating for equality, freedom, and justice for all.
