A GLOBAL CELEBRATION OF HUMAN RIGHTS CHAMPIONS ON SCIENTOLOGY NETWORK

In recognition of Human Rights Day, Scientology Network will present a special marathon on December 10, showcasing the work of individuals and organizations working with United for Human Rights to secure freedom for all.

While celebrating the progress made in human rights, this programming also underscores the urgent need for continued awareness and education. Currently, an estimated 50 million people remain trapped in modern slavery and, every year, two million individuals are trafficked across borders—one new victim every 16 seconds. The need to protect human rights has never been more critical.

United for Human Rights, a global nonprofit organization, is dedicated to implementing the Universal Declaration of Human Rights at local, national and international levels. Its mission includes providing educators and government institutions with essential resources to promote knowledge about human rights.

The International Human Rights Day Marathon will educate viewers on the history of human rights, as well as the present-day campaigns being championed across the globe to make human rights a reality.

The day’s special programming will feature:

• The Story of Human Rights, a striking short film that simply and concisely defines human rights, one of the world’s most misunderstood subjects;
• Voices for Humanity, the only ongoing television series dedicated to those working to bring human rights to their countries and handle other major social ills;
• PSAs to raise awareness of human rights; and
• Liyana, an award-winning film combining documentary and animation, where children from Eswatini transform their own experiences into a powerful tale that underscores the universal rights of children to safety, education and a voice in shaping their future.

The International Human Rights Day Marathon starts December 10 at 8:00 a.m. ET/PT. See the full schedule at scientology.tv/schedule.
