- (1888PressRelease) July 13, 2018 - In order for human rights to be upheld and protected, they must be known. That is why Tennessee United for Human Rights focuses on educating people on their basic rights. This summer, volunteers are teaching the 30 basic human rights to youth involved in the Peace Ambassador summer program.
Tennessee United for Human Rights (TUHR) was formed as a non-profit public benefit corporation in 2015 to provide education and materials to Tennesseans. Since that time, the Tennessee chapter of the international non-profit United for Human Rights has delivered seminars, participated in events and raised awareness of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights across the state.
United for Human Rights provides materials that visualize the complete history of human rights, break down of the individual points of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and show how people can protect themselves with this knowledge.
United for Human Rights was founded on the Declaration’s 60th anniversary, in the face of continued worldwide abuses which violate the spirit, intent and Articles of this charter of all human rights, the first such document ever ratified by the community of nations. 2018 marks the 70th anniversary of the document and the 10th anniversary of United for Human Rights’ formation.
