World Human Rights Day, a commemorative day established to commemorate the adoption of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights by the United Nations General Assembly in February 1948 10. World Human Rights Day reminds mankind that human rights problems still exist in human society and around the world. It depends on the efforts of all mankind to implement human rights all over the world.

After learning this painful historical lesson, mankind published the Universal Declaration of Human Rights through the United Nations at 1948 12 10 in order to avoid the recurrence of such tragic history. It is noteworthy that the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights without any opposition from any country. To commemorate this important day, the United Nations named the day when the Universal Declaration of Human Rights was adopted (i.e. 1948 12 10) as "World Human Rights Day". This is the origin of World Human Rights Day.

The Universal Declaration of Human Rights was adopted by the United Nations General Assembly in Paris on 1948 12 10, aiming at guaranteeing basic human rights (United Nations General Assembly resolution 2 17, A/RES/2 17). The direct reason for the drafting of the declaration is the introspection of the Second World War, and it is the first document to express the rights that all mankind should enjoy on a global scale.

Its complete document is published by the United Nations on its website. There are 30 articles in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Together with the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights and two other optional treaties, it is included in the International Bill of Human Rights. The first two are adopted in 1966 and implemented in 1967.
