Third Monday in October: Human Rights Day

The third Monday in October is recognized as Human Rights Day in many countries around the world. This significant day serves as a powerful reminder of our collective responsibility to promote and protect the rights of all people, regardless of background or identity.

Human Rights Day marks the anniversary of the adoption of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) by the United Nations General Assembly in 1948. This landmark document defines the fundamental rights and freedoms that should be guaranteed to every person—regardless of race, gender, religion, nationality, or any other status.
