O Thank you avik Ior telling us exactly what the 30 human rights are!!!!
O Now we all have a clear idea oI the history& Iormulation oI these rights and also the
rights
O ust was making the universal declaration oI these rights enough to bring them into
Iorce........
O No!!!
O The Iact is when it was signed the universal declaration oI human rights did not have the
Iorce oI law it was optional. And despite many more documents, conventions, treaties
and laws. Today.. these are little more than words on a paper
O 'I have a dream today.. hen martin Luther king Jr. marched Ior racial equality he
was marching Ior rights that had been guaranteed by the un Ior almost 2 decades. ut still
he marched
O hen nelson Mandela stood Ior social justice in the 1990s his country had agreed on
abolition oI sex discrimination Ior almost 40 yrs. ut still he Iought
O The declaration guarantees-#ight To Adequate Food- Yet 15,000 children die oI
starvation everyday
O #ight to Iree speech- but thousands are in prison Ior saying what they believed to be true.
The imprisonment oI anna hazare being a recent burning eg oI the same
O Forbids Slavery- but 27 million people live as slaves today. Twice the number which in
the 1800s.
O #ight To ducation-still.More than a billion people are unable to read
O Forbids Slavery- but 27 million people live as slaves today
O So the question is who will make these word a reality?????????
O #ight To ducation-More than a billion people are unable to read
O e don`t need giants or superheroes Ior this. e need ordinary people. Iree thinking
individuals, who reIuse to be silent who realize that human rights are not just history
lessons, not words on a page nor are just speeches .they are the choices we make every
day as human beings. They are responsibilities we all share to respect each other, to help
each other and protect those who are in need.
O Finally I would like to conclude by answering the question which leanor #oosevelt
asked-where aIter all do the universal human rights begin??
O It begins in small places close to home. So close so small that they cannot be seen on any
maps oI the world. Yet they are the world oI the individual person. The neighborhood
heroes, the school- clg he attends, the Iactory, the Iarm or the oII where he works. Such
are the places where very man woman and child seeks equal justice.eq opp, eq
dignity,without being discriminated
O &nless these rights have meaning there. They have little meaning anywhere
O Now on behalI oI my whole team I would like to thank dahlia mam Ior her constant
support and guidance and all oI you sitting here Ior being such patient listeners
Thank you
