Please join us in the Nicolás Guillén Room for this film screening featuring WLP's latest documentary film, Human Rights: The Unfinished Journey. The screening is in commemoration of International Human Rights Day, which is December 10th. The film will be followed by an open discussion on women’s rights, human rights, and human security. This event is brought to you by The Women's Learning Partnership.
About the film:
Since 9/11, the international emphasis on military-centered security has given rise to unprecedented challenges for human rights defenders. The push for “hard security” has increasingly taken priority over human rights protections at all levels of governance and policy making. This approach has failed to promote peace or guarantee individual safety or national security. Human Rights: The Unfinished Journey chronicles the history of the human rights movement and explores the need for a holistic understanding of universal human rights. It presents a compelling case on why human rights should be placed at the center of national and international policy making.
