Opening remarks by Dennis Francis, President of the 78th session of the General Assembly, on the informal meeting on the occasion of the 75th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the 2023 UN Human Rights Prize Award Ceremony - General Assembly, 78th session. General Assembly President Dennis Francis told the gathering that “alarming pushbacks against human rights, including surges in hate speech and hate crime, setbacks in women's and children's rights, and emerging challenges, such as the climate crisis and digital transformation, demand our collective attention.” He said, “in this climate of proliferating conflicts and heightened global polarization, this 75th anniversary serves as an opportunity for introspection and a renewed call for action.” The UN Prize in the Field of Human Rights is an honorary award given to individuals and organizations in recognition of outstanding achievement in human rights. The Prize was established by the General Assembly in 1966 and was awarded for the first time on 10 December 1968, the twentieth anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The Prize has since been awarded in 1973, 1978, 1988, 1993, 1998, 2003, 2008, 2013 and 2018. The winners of the prestigious Prize for 2023 are the Human Rights Centre “Viasna” in Belarus; Julienne Lusenge, of the Democratic Republic of the Congo; the Amman Centre for Human Rights Studies in Jordan; Julio Pereyra of Uruguay; and the Global Coalition of civil society organizations, Indigenous Peoples, social movements and local communities for “the universal recognition of the right to a clean, healthy and sustainable environment.”
