The Union Association for Human Rights concluded three cultural exhibitions, held for ten days at the United Nations Office at the Palace of Nations in Geneva, on the sidelines of the 57th session of the Human Rights Council.
The exhibitions showcased 136 paintings that highlighted the UAE's journey in three key areas: "Peace, Tolerance, and Coexistence," "Climate Protection and Environmental Safety," and “Smart Digital Justice.”
Twenty permanent paintings were also featured, emphasising the UAE's commitment to civil, political, economic, social, and cultural rights as well as quotes from the UAE's leadership highlighting the importance of human beings as the nation's true capital.
The exhibitions showcased the UAE's efforts to protect the rights of vulnerable groups, including women, girls, youth, children, the elderly, People of Determination, and workers.
The UAE's progress in promoting human rights and achieving the Sustainable Development Goals was also highlighted.
The three exhibitions were held in collaboration with international non-governmental organisations with consultative status at the United Nations.
They attracted university students, representatives of international non-governmental organisations, prominent community figures in Geneva, UN experts and decision-makers, international organisations, civil and community leaders, and human rights advocates.
