This was essentially internal - here at uOttawa/HRREC. It was a rich collegial exchange and shows the range of topics being addressed; the UDHR offered an impetus to get together and a thread which bound the various topics together (at least as a source of inspiration). Please feel free to share this with the CAHRI network. I look forward to following up in 2019 with a view to invigorating the CAHRI network!

UDHR 70th anniversary

by Helen Fallding

Hi Christina, The Canadian Museum for Human Rights is recognizing the 70th anniversary: https://humanrights.ca/event/human-rights-day From: Christina Szurlej <cszurlej(a)stu.ca> Date: Tuesday, December 4, 2018 at 3:05 PM To: "helen.fallding(a)umanitoba.ca" <Helen.Fallding(a)umanitoba.ca> Subject: RE: [HR-rsch] Forum on implementing UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples: Jan. 18-19 Hi Helen, Could you please send an email to our network inquiring about events across Canada celebrating the 70th anniversary of the UDHR? When I lived in England, there were a number of momentous events to celebrate the 60th anniversary. It may be that organizations are waiting until the 75th, but thought I’d check and see. I am not aware of any events happening in New Brunswick. The AHRC is not organizing an event, given that classes will be over and students are busy prepping for exams.
