Human Rights Day is the day in 1948 the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
It is celebrated around the world with political and social conferences and special events on human rights issues.
Often the United Nations Prize in the Field of Human Rights and Nobel Peace Prize are awarded on the same day.
We publish events and consultations in our calendar which we hope will be of interest to our members and supporters. We strive to be accurate in these listings, so please contact us if you see an error or problem. The organisers of third-party events (coded blue) are mostly unconnected to us, and we have no control over these.
If you know of an event that you would like to see listed here, please let us know.
