WEEKLY JOB BULLETIN - WEEK 9 Dear Colleagues, Please find attached our weekly bulletin, in which we feature the Zero Discrimination Day. UNAIDS encourages action to change discriminatory laws in the attempt to restore dignity and respect and save lives. Have a nice weekend! Kind regards, Andras

1. UNAIDS encourages action to change
discriminatory laws in the attempt to restore
dignity and respect and save lives. On Zero
Discrimination Day, UNAIDS call on countries
to explore discriminatory provisions in their
laws and policies and make positive changes to
guarantee equality, inclusion and protection.
“Human rights violations are happening all over
the world because of
discriminatory laws and practices,” said Michel
Sidibé, Executive Director of UNAIDS. “Laws
must protect, not cause harm. All countries
must carefully examine their laws and policies
in order to ensure equality and protection for all people, without exception.”
In many countries, laws result in people being treated differently, rejected from fundamental
services or being subject to undue limitations on how they live their lives, simply because of who
they are. Such laws are discriminatory – they deny human rights and fundamental freedoms.
Ending discrimination and changing laws is the obligation of us all. Everyone can have a role in
ending discrimination and can try to make a difference, whether they are small or big. The Zero
Discrimination Day 2019 campaign challenges people to act against laws that discriminate in their
country. Find out more about the campaign here! Source (http://www.unaids.org/en/2019_ZDD_campaign).
