Watch UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Michelle Bachelet's Human Rights Day Message on How Equality is the Heart of Human Rights.
In her Human Rights Day statement, UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Michelle Bachelet says equality is the solution to the setbacks sparked by global shocks and exacerbated by COVID-19. "Equality is about empathy and solidarity and about understanding that, as a common humanity, our only way forward is to work together for the common good.”

Action: On this Human Rights Day, I invite everyone to join efforts to enhance equality for everyone everywhere, so that we can recover better, fairer and greener from this crisis, and rebuild societies that are more resilient and sustainable.
