Human Rights Day is listed as a public holiday in Namibia.
A United Nations observance marking the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the dignity owed to every person.
A day for the thing remembered at the door, bought before closing, delivered before supper, or rescued just in time.
The anniversary of the 1948 Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The day is observed with ceremonies, and the reminder that Namibia has one of the most progressive constitutions in Africa, which explicitly prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, sex, ethnicity, and religion. The day is both celebration and demand, and the signs say: "Human rights for all" and "End gender-based violence."
A day for herbs, flowers, seedlings, balcony pots, and every bit of green people manage to keep alive.
A day for the quick meal, the regular customer, the busy cook, and the food people rely on between obligations.
You encounter the iconic Arabian oryx, Palestinian sunbird, and rock hyrax as the most distinctive wildlife native to Palestinian territories. You commonly see people keeping cats, dogs, and pigeons as pets throughout Palestinian communities. ACADA celebrates the world's pets, and helps assure better care.
You celebrate the hardy provisions and equipment designed for Antarctic research stations, where French thermal wear and specialized food supplies sustain scientists in the world's most extreme environment. You recognize that these practical goods represent France's commitment to polar exploration and the preservation of one of Earth's last frontiers.
