10 December: International Human Rights Day

Human Rights Day is observed every year on 10 December — the day the United Nations General Assembly adopted, in 1948, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR): a milestone document proclaiming the inalienable rights which everyone is inherently entitled to as a human being regardless of race, colour, religion, sex, language, political or other opinion, national or social origin, property, birth or other status.

Come and join us for – a social meet-up for discussing how we can better promote and protect human rights in Africa. Hear from invited speakers, meet new faces (and old ones) over a drink, and chat about participation. You never know what connections or ideas might be born from a chance encounter.

Location: Kairaba Avenue, Banjul, The Gambia
When: From 6pm, Thursday 10 December
Register: Because of Covid-19, this event has been postponed. But, please check again.
