Northern Ireland Human Rights Festival 9-14 December 2013

The 2013 Northern Ireland Human Rights Festival which runs from 9th-14th December has released its programme of events!

This festival sees a broad range of organisations from across Northern Ireland come together to provide an exciting range of events that help reflect the theme of “Celebrating and Protecting Human Rights”.

 

The programme integrates classic festival style events with topical human rights issues from home and abroad in an effort to raise public awareness and participation in the promotion and defence of human rights. This year’s programme has cabaret, poetry, classic films, photography exhibitions, pub quizzes, talks, presentations and many other human rights themed events.

 

We look forward to seeing you during the festival.

 

Background

 

Each year the 10th December is celebrated as Human Rights Day across the world. The date marks the United Nations General Assembly’s adoption of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in 1948. In 2012 civic society organisations across Northern Ireland brought their individual Human Rights Day events together for the first time under the umbrella of the Northern Ireland Human Rights Festival. The diversity of events and issues covered as part of the festival are reflective of the universal nature of human rights.
