Seventy-five years after the adoption of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, how has the human rights movement evolved and adapted? Is human rights–as a language, a legal framework, and a tool for accountability and change–still relevant to confront the challenges of our time, from inequality to climate change to the resurgence of authoritarianism? Join Navi Pillay, former UN High Commissioner for Human Rights and President of the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda, for a conversation about the impact and effectiveness of human rights, and how to maintain resilience and optimism as a human rights advocate.
