International Human Rights Day, Tuesday November 25, 2014
This year we celebrated International Human Rights Day by showcasing our Human Rights Education Program. It's been 20 years since it's inception! Starting with one Human Rights Educator and now with a team of Educators - Melissa Luhtenan (Calgary), Pamela Dos Ramos (Southern Alberta & Calgary), Yessy Byl (Northern Alberta) and Brenda Johnston (Calgary). Each Educator highlighted our newest publications, DVD's, programs and online resources. Sarah Burton gave an overview of our new website. Cassie Palamar sent official greetings on behalf of the Alberta Human Rights Commission. Doreen Barrie, ACLRC Board Chair, presented Martha MacManus with the Civil Liberties Award. Congratulations Martha! We enjoyed light snacks and cake to round out the evening.

One Origin One Race One Earth
The human genome is our common bloodline and our future. As geneticists continue to explore life at its molecular level, the challenge for geneticists, ethicists, and lawyers is to ensure that ethics and law keep pace. We must also ensure that the fruits of such research are applied without prejudice for the benefit of those who are living and those yet to be born.
"One Origin, One Race, One Earth: Genetics, Human Rights and the Next Phase of Human Evolution" will address legal and ethical issues attendant to genetics -- issues that lead us into the heart of what it is to be human.
