In the run-up to Human Rights Day 2022, the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) launches a year-long campaign to promote the 75th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, a milestone document in the history of human struggle for dignity, freedom and justice for all.
In December, in close collaboration with our donors and partners, UNDP is organising a series of events to enhance equality and support vulnerable people and marginalized communities seeking recognition and protection of their rights.
