Human Rights Day: 10th December
Posted on November 22nd, 2007 by mj
Human Rights Day is celebrated annually across the world on 10 December.
The date was chosen to honour the United Nations General Assembly’s adoption and proclamation, on 10 December 1948, of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the first global enunciation of human rights. The commemoration was established in 1950, when the General Assembly invited all states and interested organisations to celebrate the day as they saw fit.
