December 10, International Human Rights Day, is a day when the world observes the UN’s ratification of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in 1948.

Sixty six years on and we still have not learned how to live in peace and harmony with each other. Violation of human rights plagues every society in our world on a daily basis. And such violation takes place not only in countries in which wars are being waged, but in our own country of Trinidad and Tobago where life continues to be devalued in a myriad of ways.

by Leela Ramdeen, Chair, CCSJ and Director, CREDI

As we prepare for the coming of the birth of Jesus, let us see Him in the faces of our “neighbours”. Amidst the splendour of the decorations in the malls and the “goodies” in our stores and supermarkets, spare a thought for Jesus who lives among us and who is hungry. See Jesus in the homeless, the destitute, and those in need. He came so that we may have life, and have it to the full. Yet thousands in T&T and millions around the world live like Lazarus, waiting for the crumbs to fall from the table of the rich.

On my return from attending an International Conference in Kingston, Jamaica on the theme: Human Rights, International Law and The Family (see REPORTS), my eyes were drawn upwards as I waited for the gate at Archbishop’s House to open. The brilliant sunshine shone on the beautiful crèche which, this year, has been placed high above the front door so that all could see it more clearly.
