UN High Commissioner on Human Rights Day, 10 December 2009: Non-Discrimination “At The Heart of Human Rights”

United Nations: “The concept of non-discrimination lies at the heart of human rights. For this reason, it has been designated the official theme of this Human Rights Day, which occurs every year on the anniversary of the adoption of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in 1948. And for this and many other reasons it should be an unofficial theme every day, every year, for everyone.”
