Discussion: Global Backsliding on Human Rights Protection: We are all at Risk

In the past decade, we have observed a troubling global backsliding in the protection of human rights. This regression is being promoted, encouraged, and financed by various traditionalist and fundamentalist groups, including certain churches and their affiliated NGOs, conservative civil society organizations, as well as governments and politicians from a wide range of countries. This lecture, featuring lawyer Tamara Adrián, aims to raise awareness of this dangerous global movement. The lecture also empowers participants to develop effective strategies to counter these regressive actions.

Global Topics, Trans-Atlantic Perspectives, Variety of Formats

Named after the address of its event space on Fifth Avenue, 1014 offers trans-Atlantic perspectives on today’s pressing global topics in a variety of formats: multi-faceted projects, exhibitions, performances, and talks.

GERMANY’S COMMITMENT TO THE TRANS-ATLANTIC PARTNERSHIP

The Federal Republic of Germany strongly believes in the importance of trans-Atlantic cooperation and holistic approaches to foreign policy, including arts and culture. It therefore continues to facilitate trans-Atlantic encounters and, eventually, a residency program, and supports the work of 1014.
