"Human rights are not a privilege.. They are every human being's entitlement by virtue of his/her humanity." ~Mother Teresa "Where, after all, do universal human rights begin? In small places, close to home -- so close and so small that they cannot be seen on any maps of the world. [...] Unless these rights have meaning there, they have little meaning anywhere. Without concerted citizen action to uphold them close to home, we shall look in vain for progress in the larger world." ~Eleanor Roosevelt Eleanor Roosevelt’s leading role as Chairperson of the drafting committee of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights has been well documented. But other women also played essential parts in shaping the document. Learn more about some of them here.

Safer Internet Day 2021 Did you know? 1 in 5 young people reported being socially excluded, threatened, or abused online. On Safer Internet Day the world comes together with a shared vision of making online experiences better for everyone. As the official committee in Australia and a leader in the global effort, eSafety celebrates the day as one of the most important events of the year. We run Safer Internet Day webinars for school students, parents and carers. We also share tips and resources that help all communities throughout Australia talk about online issues and the best strategies for staying safe. To mark Safer Internet Day on Tuesday 9 February 2021 we are releasing new research, Digital Lives of Aussie Teens.
