HREA organised a showing of the new documentary film “A Path to Dignity: The Power of Human Rights Education” at the annual Human Dimension Implementation Meeting in Warsaw organised by the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE). Approximately fifty people attended the screening, held on the evening of September 24th.
HREA produced this film jointly with Soka Gakkai International (SGI) and the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) as a tool to raise awareness about the positive role that human rights education can play in fulfilling human rights. The film premiered at the United Nations Human Rights Council in Geneva on September 19th.
The Human Dimension Implementation Meeting is Europe’s largest conference on human rights and democracy, attended by government representatives, experts, non-governmental organisations, and human rights defenders from 56 countries.
