All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights.

This #PrideMonth and every day, join us to #Standup4HumanRights.

For everyone, everywhere.

[UN Development @UNDP]

Human rights are more than ideals; they can be a lifeline for people in crisis.

Without a foundation of dignity, fairness & accountability, sustainable development risks falling apart.

With human rights as our compass, we can find our way forward. https://t.co/1BVOGrB6jN
