The “Rights” Side of Life is a human rights survey to understand attitudes, awareness and perceptions of the public on a range of human rights issues in the Maldives. The latest survey conducted by HRCM and UNDP together with FPA also focused on examining the knowledge, perceptions and prevalence of domestic violence in the Maldives.
The COVID-19 pandemic is the latest crisis facing the world, but unless humans release their grip on nature, it won’t be the last, according to a new report by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), which includes a new experimental index on human progress that takes into account countries’ carbon dioxide emissions and material footprint.
The COVID-19 crisis which has so restricted the lives of the young represents both a clear warning and an urgent challenge. It is essential that the generation with the greatest stake in the future should not only consume responsibly, but also use their entrepreneurial skills and imaginations to build new businesses, in greener, lower carbon and more sustainable ways, as responsible producers of the future.
