STUDENTS CHANGE AFTER LEARNING HUMAN RIGHTS

Educators around the world are successfully teaching fundamental values to their students through the Youth for Human Rights International curriculum. Here's what their students say:

"As we discussed these rights, I realized how essential it was to talk about them and promote these rights, and that if it could be widespread, then everyone would realize how we are equal." -S.Y.

"I learned that one main thing that human rights stands for is for all peoples, all nations to be united. This means being able to work with each other to achieve a common good. For this to happen, there can't be any discrimination, segregation, hatred or cruelty against any one." -J.W.

The purpose of Youth for Human Rights International is to teach youth about human rights, specifically the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and inspire them to become advocates for tolerance and peace.

Quotes
My favorite place in the world is Colorado. I spent every summer there growing up and my family still has a cabin there. I love to hike (up to 12,000 ft peaks), bike, and raft in the mountains, so it is like heaven to me there. Biggest Challenge? My biggest challenge is being patient. I am very efficient and quite a perfectionist, so waiting does not come easily to me. Best Advice? Treat others as you would want to be treated, and never compromise what you know is right. Goals?To be a successful performer who is able to influence people for good.

Opinion
Recognising Reality - Grieve that God is cursed for every catastrophe, but seldom praised for His wonderful Creation. Lament that God makes the news headlines only when man mocks His power or questions His goodness, but tens-of-thousands of God’s acts of mercy, grace, protection, provision and patience receive no headlines. Grieve that the Name of the only righteous Man who ever walked the earth is used as a swear word on T.V. screens and in cinemas across the world. Grieve that God is blasphemed by the very same people who question why God does not restrain the consequences of their own rebellious actions
