We are witnessing a crucial historical moment due to the great socio-political and economic changes that are affecting us. This revolution is weakening the foundations of the culture that in some ways lay complacent.
However, reality has once again proven to be more picturesque than fiction and we are perplexedly witnessing radical changes in the pillars of society and culture. It is not difficult to see how there has been a setback in respect for civil rights, citing either security or the need to achieve certain economic objectives.
In any case, there is nothing more disturbing to me than witnessing the inexorable bankruptcy and erosion of the rights recognized in the Fundamental Declaration of Human Rights, which celebrates its 70th anniversary this year.
On the occasion of the anniversary, I would like to launch a “call to action” in which I call on all those people who feel that this document has been and is one of the great steps taken by Humanity towards a universalization of rights and a protection of all individuals. © A la deriva/A drift
