This year, Human Rights Day on 10 December will focus on non-discrimination. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights affirmed 60 years ago that “all human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights”.

To mark Human Rights Day 2009 ICHRP (International Council on Human Rights Policy)has invited Council Members and other human rights activists to tell us why non-discrimination is important to them. From November 10th to December 10th, video interviews will be posted regularly on their website. They will also be available on the ICHRP Youtube Channel.
