The Universal Declaration of Human Rights was adopted by the United Nations December 10. :1948--just 15 years ago. It states in its preamble that "'recognition of the inherent dignity and of the equal and inalienable rights of all members of the human fam- ily is the foundation of freedom, justic and peace in the world". This is a basic principle of the Baha'i Faith and has been since its beginmng over 100 years ago. As an organization with accred- ited observers at the United Na- tions in the non-governmental sec- tion, and twice cited by the U.S. Committee for the UN for its efforts in furthering the princi- ples of the United Nations, the Baha'ts feel that everyone has a vital stake in Human Rights Day.
