The Elders are working with a wide range of organizations to remind the world that much work remains to be done to protect the human rights of all women and promote women’s leadership. To mark the 60th anniversary of the Declaration of Human Rights, the Elders are running the Every Human Has Rights campaign. They are asking for 1 billion individuals, rather than governments, to sign their declaration and commit to embracing the values and goals of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. 

If you’re willing to make the following pledge, sign the declaration here.

I wish to take responsibility for upholding the goals of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in my daily life and in my community.

I will do my best to speak out to protect the freedom and rights of others in my community.
I affirm the following principle:

“Everyone is entitled to all the rights and freedoms set forth in this Declaration, without distinction of any kind, such as race, colour, sex, language, religion, political or other opinion, national or social origin, property, birth or other status.”

I believe Every Human Has Rights.
