Scientology Network will commemorate Human Rights Day, December 10, with a special marathon television event. Featuring the work of United for Human Rights, the day’s programming will showcase the movement’s global efforts in raising awareness of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and protecting the rights of individuals.
In 2023, the UN recorded over 33,000 civilian deaths from armed conflicts, a 72 percent increase over 2022. And the challenges of protecting human rights in 2024 only continue to rise as civil liberties declined globally for the 18th consecutive year. It’s clear that the need to protect human rights is more urgent than ever.
The Human Rights Day Marathon will inform viewers of the history of human rights, as well as the present-day campaigns being waged around the world by United for Human Rights. The organization provides materials to educators and government institutions; works with human rights activists in the distribution of these materials; organizes marches and petition drives; and partners with like-minded organizations to raise awareness on the importance of protecting human rights. In total, nearly 200 nations have been reached with the United for Human Rights campaign.
The Human Rights Day Marathon will feature:
The Human Rights Day Marathon starts December 10 at 8 a.m. ET. See the full schedule at scientology.tv/schedule.
