Il 10 dicembre è dedicata ai diritti umani . Ma la nostra attenzione deve essere sempre costante a partire dal giorno dopo. E puntare l’attenzione sulle violazioni in corso contro la dignità della persona, mantenendo uno sguardo planetario. Ecco cosa dice il preambolo della dichiarazione universale dei diritti umani proclamata nel 1948.

“Considerato che il riconoscimento della dignità inerente a tutti i membri della famiglia umana e dei loro diritti, uguali ed inalienabili, costituisce il fondamento della libertà, della giustizia e della pace nel mondo;

Considerato che il disconoscimento e il disprezzo dei diritti umani hanno portato ad atti di barbarie che offendono la coscienza dell’umanità, e che l’avvento di un mondo in cui gli esseri umani godano della libertà di parola e di credo e della libertà dal timore e dal bisogno è stato proclamato come la più alta aspirazione dell’uomo;

Considerato che è indispensabile che i diritti umani siano protetti da norme giuridiche, se si vuole evitare che l’uomo sia costretto a ricorrere, come ultima istanza, alla ribellione contro la tirannia e l’oppressione;

Considerato che è indispensabile promuovere lo sviluppo di rapporti amichevoli tra le Nazioni;

Considerato che i popoli delle Nazioni Unite hanno riaffermato nello Statuto la loro fede nei diritti umani fondamentali, nella dignità e nel valore della persona umana, nell’uguaglianza dei diritti dell’uomo e della donna, ed hanno deciso di promuovere il progresso sociale e un miglior tenore di vita in una maggiore libertà;

Considerato che gli Stati membri si sono impegnati a perseguire, in cooperazione con le Nazioni Unite, il rispetto e l’osservanza universale dei diritti umani e delle libertà fondamentali;

Considerato che una concezione comune di questi diritti e di questa libertà è della massima importanza per la piena realizzazione di questi impegni;

L’Assemblea Generale proclama

la presente dichiarazione universale dei diritti umani come ideale comune da raggiungersi da tutti i popoli e da tutte le Nazioni, al fine che ogni individuo ed ogni organo della società, avendo costantemente presente questa Dichiarazione, si sforzi di promuovere, con l’insegnamento e l’educazione, il rispetto di questi diritti e di queste libertà e di garantirne, mediante misure progressive di carattere nazionale e internazionale, l’universale ed effettivo riconoscimento e rispetto tanto fra i popoli degli stessi Stati membri, quanto fra quelli dei territori sottoposti alla loro giurisdizione”.
