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 day is observed in Nigeria with events organized by human rights groups, and the focus is on the human rights challenges facing the country (police brutality, extrajudicial killings, and the suppression of free speech). The #EndSARS protests of 2020 (which were sparked by the brutality of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad) brought the human rights debate to the forefront of Nigerian politics, and the day is a reminder that the struggle for human rights is far from over.
A day for mending the little thing before it becomes the expensive thing.
A day for the footwear that knows the job better than the person wearing it wants to admit.
You encounter the iconic Arabian oryx, Palestinian sunbird, and rock hyrax as the most distinctive wildlife native to Palestinian territories.
