There is a difference
On the eve of the Human Rights Day, on December 8, the 6th National Forum on Human Rights will take place. During the forum, the public is invited to discuss the current situation and what we can do to make life in Lithuania good for people of all nationalities, races, religions, genders, social status, political or others opinions – for everyone. This year, the Forum is dedicated to the 75th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the 30th anniversary of Lithuania’s membership in the Council of Europe.
The Forum is a unique phenomenon that unites the academic, governmental and non-governmental sector and international communities.
