Charles Malik’s unwavering commitment to human rights lives on today: “The dignity of man is an ideal worth fighting for and worth dying for.” ✊🌍

As one of the key drafters of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, Malik’s vision for justice and human dignity helped shape the cornerstone of international human rights law. On this International Human Rights Day, we honor his legacy and the principles he championed.

Observed every year on 10 December, Human Rights Day marks the adoption of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in 1948. This landmark document guarantees the fundamental rights and freedoms of every individual, everywhere, regardless of nationality, race, gender, religion, language, or status.

Let us continue to work tirelessly to protect the dignity and rights of all. ⚖️🌐

👩‍⚖️✨ On International Women’s Day, we celebrate justice and equality, inspired by Lady Justice herself. As she stands blindfolded for impartiality, with scales balanced and sword in hand, we’re reminded of the strength and determination of women worldwide. Let’s honor their fight for fairness in law and life. Together, we strive for a world where everyone’s rights are upheld equally.

Eleanor Roosevelt's timeless words echo on this International Day for Human Rights: 'It isn’t enough to talk about peace. One must believe in it. And it isn’t enough to believe in it. One must work at it.' 🗣️

Human Rights Day is observed by the international community every year on 10 December. It commemorates the day in 1948 the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights sets out a broad range of fundamental rights and freedoms to which all of us are entitled. It guarantees the rights of every individual everywhere, without distinction based on nationality, place of residence, gender, national or ethnic origin, religion, language, or any other status.

parties play a central role in systems. At the same time, they influence public opinion. It is therefore necessary to regulate the legal framework of parties in a party law.

The latter must ensure that:
1. The parties themselves abide by democratic and constitutional principles;
2. the financing of parties is regulated;
3. the formal and substantive requirements for banning a party are specified.

Those are three points that every political parties law should include.

Can you think of other aspects?

Come, join and share with us your opinion on the 7th of November starting 4 PM at the Gulbenkian Auditorium, USJ Social Sciences Campus, Huvelin Street – Achrafieh, Beirut, Lebanon.
