On 10th December 2008, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) turned 60 and this landmark anniversary was celebrated under the theme "Human Rights to Freedom and Poverty: Dignity and Justice for All.” A new year has dawned on us with poverty still hovering around us. Addressing poverty from a Human Rights perspective must be sustained.
Poverty is a denial of human rights. Every woman, man, youth and child has the human right to a standard of living adequate for health and well-being, to food, education, clothing, housing, medical care and social services. These fundamental human rights are defined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, International Covenants and other widely adhered to international human rights treaties and Declarations: powerful tools that can empower efforts for social and economic justice worldwide.
