YOUR RIGHTS

OUR CELEBRATION

Happy Human Rights Day from Equality & Rights Alliance (ERA)!

On December 10th, the world will celebrate International Human Rights Day and the 60th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR).

But, instead of lighting the candles on the birthday cake Ireland is busy putting them out.

Budget decisions are being finalized to make The Equality Authority and the Irish Human Rights Commission unviable. There will be no real support for people who experience discrimination or inequality from next year on.

Tell the Government that you want to celebrate your rights, dignity and equality.

Click the button above to sign the petition to oppose plans to dismantle equality and human rights protection in this birthday year.

Ireland can’t afford cuts to equality and human rights. Not now. Not ever. Equality & Rights Alliance is a coalition of 71 civil society organizations working to enhance and protect equality, human rights and social justice.

The UDHR was developed in the aftermath of the Second World War in 1948 and was the first global statement of the inherent dignity and equality of all human beings. It provides a common global standard and is effectively a contract between all governments and their peoples.
