valuable as traditional teaching to embed the qualities of humility, empathy and
mutual respect that underlie human rights. The voices of people deprived of
human rights—and thus of their human dignity—are indispensable guides to
learning our shared duties to the community, and to constructing a world where
every individual and all organs of society secure universal respect for human
rights for all. Through dialogue, interaction and learning we move from
information to knowledge to realization of the imperatives of social and
economic justice within a human rights framework. Learning human rights
harnesses the energies of all people to develop a shared global culture of human
rights. <o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
