The Universal Declaration and its core values- inherent human dignity, justice,
non-discrimination, equality, fairness and universality- apply to everyone, everywhere,always.
In all parts of the world, individuals, groups, organisations, and Governments
have striven to transform into reality the promises contained in the Universal
Declaration. Many have died in the pursuit of these ideals.
In today’s growing divisions between the rich and the poor, the powerful and
the vulnerable, the technologically advanced and the illiterate, the aggressors and the victims, the relevance of the Declaration and the universality of the enshrined rights need to be loudly reaffirmed.
