Remarks by Richard Bennett Representative of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights in Nepal At an inauguration of Human Rights National Magna Meet 2009 Kathmandu, 8 December 2009
|
Embrace Diversity, End Discrimination' is the theme for the Human Rights Day this year, designated by the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights. The High
Commissioner, Navi Pillay, has chosen non-discrimination as the theme because
discrimination spreads mistrust and humiliation for victims and leads to violence,conflict and discord generally. The main objective is to promote discrimination-free societies and the High Commissioner is calling on every country to embrace diversity and honour the human rights of everyone. By embracing diversity, societies become richer, more respectful, and more human.
