This #HumanRightsDay, I call for urgent action to protect #OurRightsOurFuture - right now. Human rights are not just ideals for some - they are justice for all. They are the foundation of our shared existence & the measure of our humanity. Protecting them is protecting ourselves.

Imagine a future where your doctor hands you a prescription for strength training instead of medications. The future of medicine will focus on movement, whole foods, sunlight, nature, stress and meditation. The doctor of tomorrow isn’t prescribing pills—they’re

.#Colombia es el país más peligroso para defensores ambientales y de tierra. Indígenas son el 43% de las víctimas y 6% afro descendientes. De acuerdo a Global Witness los sectores donde se registran más asesinatos son minería y extractivismo, seguido de los agronegocios. #CND68
