Hello

As we recognize the importance of Human Rights today and celebrate over sixty years of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, Navi Pillay asks us to "embrace diversity and end discrimination." At Global Solutions Pittsburgh, we acknowledge this day by sharing a video of people in our area talking about what human rights means to them. We hope you watch it and tell us what human rights means to you on Twitter, Facebook and the Pittsburgh Human Rights Network.

Human Rights Day: What Do Human Rights Mean to You? Video Global Solutions Pittsburgh / the Pittsburgh Human Rights Network put together a video of different people from all over Pittsburgh talking about what human rights mean to them and why human rights are important.

And continuing in this spirit, the Pittsburgh Human Rights Network will be sponsoring a monthly blog contest for the next three months. Each month’s winner will get either a $50 gift card or a $50 donation to a charity of their choice.
