我们社会的丰富多彩建立在人类多样性的辉煌之上。

“在我们需要团结起来应对人类面临的生存挑战之时,人权有力量将我们凝聚在一起。”

联合国人权事务高级专员沃尔克·蒂尔克周一公布了他对重申人权承诺的愿景,该愿景旨在通过恢复对人类普遍状况的信任,使人权成为推动变革的力量,从而应对当今和未来的挑战,包括气候变化、冲突、不平等和新技术。

在日内瓦举行的人权理事会第55届会议期间提出的“人权:解决之道”为更美好的未来提出了八个方向:支持全球人权拥护者;人权是预防和建设和平的中心;平等和可持续的经济造福人类和地球;环境行动;反应迅速和有效的治理;提高所有人地位的技术和科学;青年和儿童有意义的决策;以及加强人权体系建设。

在为期一年的纪念《世界人权宣言》发表75周年的“人权75倡议”中,各方广泛参与,该倡议于2023年12月在日内瓦、曼谷、内罗毕、巴拿马和全球在线同时举办的高级别活动上结束。这一愿景也是对即将于9月在纽约举行的未来峰会的贡献。未来峰会是一次高级别活动,世界各国领导人将齐聚一堂,就如何创造更美好的现在和保护未来达成新的国际共识。

蒂尔克在讲话中呼吁各国、人民和所有行为者接受和相信人权的全部力量,将其作为通往我们所希望的世界的道路:更加和平、平等和可持续。

“我们现在就必须为更美好的未来播下种子”。

HC unveils human rights vision for a better future

26 February 2024

The richness of our societies is built on the magnificence of human diversity.

“Human rights have the power to unify us at a time when we need to come together to contend with the existential challenges we face as humanity.”

UN Human Rights Chief Volker Türk on Monday unveiled his vision to renew the commitment to human rights, which sets out to address today’s and tomorrow’s challenges, including climate change, conflict, inequality and new technologies, by restoring trust on a universal human condition and making human rights a propulsive force for change.

Presented during the 55th session of the Human Rights Council in Geneva, “Human Rights: A Path for Solutions” sets out eight directions for a better future: supporting the global constituency for human rights; human rights as the centre of prevention and peacebuilding; equal and sustainable economies that work for people and the planet; environmental action; responsive and effective governance; technology and science that uplifts all; meaningful decision making by youth and children; and strengthening the human rights system.

The vision’s outlook is informed by an extensive engagement with diverse actors throughout the year-long Human Rights 75 Initiative to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which concluded in December 2023 at a High-Level Event hosted simultaneously in Geneva, Bangkok, Nairobi, Panama and globally online. The vision is also a contribution to the upcoming Summit of the Future in September, which will be held in New York. The Summit of the Future is a high-level event that will bring world leaders together to forge a new international consensus on how to deliver a better present and safeguard the future.

In his address, Türk called on States, people and all actors to embrace and trust the full power of human rights as the path to the world we want: more peaceful, equal and sustainable.

“We must seed that better future now.”
