December 10 - Human Rights Day
The Universal Declaration of Human Rights was adopted on 10th December 1948.
It proclaims the right to life.
The death penalty destroys human lives.
For this reason, the United Nations have proposed a global moratorium on the death penalty.
In 2012, 111 states has voted in favor of moratorium, 41 voting against and 34 abstaining.
We support the moratorium!
In 2013, the Office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights marks 20 years since its establishment.
Until the next December 10!
