Human rights defenders are the torchbearers of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, adopted 76 years ago. Their work ensures that these rights are not just words, but lived realities. On #HumanRightsDay, let’s recommit to protecting those who breathe life into the #UDHR.

[IBA's Human Rights Institute @IBAHRI]

On 10 Dec, @UN #HumanRightsDay2024, in a short video (3.47) @HelenaKennedyKC talks about the state of human rights today and thanks #legal professionals who promote and protect them and the independence of the #legalprofession worldwide.

"It is clear that we need more human rights than ever. We need to invest in human rights, and we can do that individually. This requires an extremely active approach on our part."

Happy Human Rights Day! Our Rights, Our Future, Right Now
Human rights play a critical role as a preventive, protective and transformative force in addressing people’s greatest concerns

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

If implemented, the laws adopted today by the Knesset of Israel would likely prevent @UNRWA from continuing its essential work in the Occupied Palestinian Territory, with devastating consequences for Palestine refugees.

I call on Israel to act consistently with its obligations under the Charter of the @UN & international law. National legislation cannot alter those obligations.

I am bringing this matter to the attention of the UN General Assembly, and will keep the Assembly closely informed as the situation develops.

There is no alternative to UNRWA.

Today we launched a consultation on our updated Code of Practice, to ensure it meets the needs of those that use it.

The Code explains how the Equality Act works in relation to the provision of services, public functions and associations.

"It's really challenging for us to now be told that having done that, having put so much time and effort and energy into that process, that now the Bill is not going to go forward"

I was delighted to represent @FacultyScot at this. The formal wig is not, perhaps, may favourite look; but the Opening of the Legal Year is a great event and involves catching up with great friends from the profession, domestically and from as far afield as Aus and the Bahamas. Thanks for the hospitality, @thebarcouncil.
