Focusing on Women’s Rights for Mother’s Day

Tennessee United for Human Rights distributed booklets enlightening people on basic human rights during the Atlantic Institute’s event for women’s rights.

Tennessee United for Human Rights (TUHR) has the mission to educate all people on their fundamental human rights.

As such, they made it a point to promote and participate in the Atlantic Institute’s event for women’s rights, taking place just before Mother’s Day.

During the event, speaker Dr. Sophia Pandya of California State University, spoke to the staggering, unknown, real stories of tens of thousands of women–including housewives, journalists, teachers, academics, physicians, health care professionals and businesswomen–who have been detained in Turkey in the aftermath of the attempted staged coup.

TUHR volunteers distributed the What are Human Rights? booklets to those attending.
Tennessee United for Human Rights (TUHR) was formed as a non-profit public benefit corporation in 2015 to provide education and materials to Tennesseans. Since that time, the Tennessee chapter of the international non-profit United for Human Rights has delivered seminars, participated in events and raised awareness of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights across the state. United for Human Rights provides materials that visualize the complete history of human rights, break down of the individual points of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and show how people can protect themselves with this knowledge.
