Every 10th of December, the Human Rights Day is observed internationally. This time, it has been 70 years since the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR). RightsTech Women work to advance the rights of women and girls in STEM, and we commit to working with partners to make sure that no one is left behind in the rapid advancements occurring in technology and science. https://rightstech.org/2018/12/09/happy-human-rights-day/ #HumanRightsDay #StandUp4HumanRights #womeninSTEM
