HUMAN RIGHTS | OUR EVERYDAY ESSENTIALS ✊🌍 📅 "Today 10 December, On Human Rights Day and every day, let us stand up for what is essential to us all. 💪✨ #HumanRights are deeply woven into our daily lives 🧵🌱. Our rights are so essential to us that we may only notice them when they are taken away🚫😔. ✅ They are about social support for an elderly man 👴 who has fallen sick 🤒. ✅ And about a student with a disability🎓♿ being treated fairly when applying for a job 💼. ✅ And they are about justice ⚖️ for prisoners 🕊️ who have been tortured in a war zone 🏴. Regardless of who we are 👥, where we live 🏠, or what we do , we all want the same things: #Safety🛡️, #Dignity 🤝, and #Freedom🕊️. 🌐 Our rights connect us all 🔗❤️. Each of you has the power to drive change." - @volker_turk 🇺🇳 UN High Commissioner for @UNHumanRights #HumanRights #OurEveryDayRights #EverydayEssentials #Cambodia
