Human Rights Day marks the adoption of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and serves as a moment to reaffirm the values of dignity, equality and justice for all. It is also a time to reflect on the people and communities working every day to make those rights a reality.
This year, we are celebrating Human Rights Day by sharing messages of hope from human rights defenders around the world. Despite shrinking civic space and growing pressure, defenders continue to document violations, support their communities and pursue justice.
At HURIDOCS, we have the privilege of working alongside many of them. Their courage and persistence inspire our work and reinforce the importance of secure and accessible documentation.
Together, they remind us that even in difficult times, hope remains, and it’s a powerful catalyst for change.
