________________ PROGRAM CLUSTER Human Rights When the General Assembly of the United Nations adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in 1948, it was generally understood to be an ambitious statement of idealism rather than a description of reality. More than 60 years later, the document continues to serve as a vital checklist of work that must still be done. The cry of the world for universal human rights comes into Sessions on Human Rights Session Title Freedom of Religion and Belief: The Project of the Australian Human Rights Commission Respecting and Defending Human Rights and Humanitarian Principles: An Islamic Global Perspective Breaking Through Patriarchy: New Visions for Women of Faith Reconciling Religious Values and the Universal Entitlement to Human Rights AMES: People, Programs and Pathways Mamaa: The Untouchable Ones Violence Finds Refuge in Falsehood: Religion and the Future of Torture Interfaith Dialogue and Education for a Culture of Peace: A Workshop for Empowerment and Transformation Global Ethics and Religion Forum: Religion and Post War Reconciliation in a Sustainable and Just World of Human Rights Indigenous Peoples and the United Nations: the Struggle for Recognition Towards a Universal Declaration of Human Rights by the World's Religions Discoveries from 'Mapping' Faith Engagement in the International Development Challenge Feeding a Plan of Action for the UN Decade of Interreligious and Intercultural Dialogue, Understanding and Cooperation for Peace (Session 1) A Baha'i Perspective on the Right to Development A New Ethical Manifesto for the Global Economy Islam 101 Series: Women's Rights as Human Rights in Islam Jaina Doctrine of Ahimsa and Sustainable Living Interpreting the Text: Apostasy and Homosexuality UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples Preventing Violence Against Women: Australian and International Perspectives Proselytisation and Religious Freedom Feeding a Plan of Action for the UN Decade of Interreligious and Intercultural Dialogue, Understanding and Cooperation for Peace (Session 2] Religion, Conflict, and Peace building: the Case of Afghanistan Hindu Intrafaith Meet: The Challenges and Opportunities Facing Hinduism in the Western World Jain Education International conflict with governments, corporations, individuals and sometimes even religious institutions and doctrines. In a sense, nearly every program at the 2009 Parliament is in some respect about human rights. However, the sessions highlighted here are most directly concerned with "the equal and inalienable rights of all members of the human family." See back of book for full descriptions.
