INTRODUCTION<\/h2>\n

The University of California, Santa Barbara Human Rights Board serves as a forum centered on facilitating and amplifying the interaction of students groups \u2013 both within UCSB and our greater community. The Board recognizes their mission of inclusivity by creating a forum that encourages, advocates, and promotes respectful and honest communication regarding the education and awareness of basic human rights principles. This includes, but is not limited to issues of age, class, disability, ethnicity, gender, gender identity, nationality, religion, race, size, sex, and sexuality. The main charge of the board is to promote open education and awareness through events, forums and educational campaigns.<\/p>\n

The driving force behind this initiative is twofold: That ignorance is the primary root of human rights abuses, and when collaborating together we are capable of making a much stronger impact.<\/p>\n

HUMAN RIGHTS WEEK<\/h2>\n

Each year since 2009 HRB has hosted Human Rights Week. Check out the program for this year’s events:<\/p>\n

Environmental Justice Statement<\/h4>\n

HRB released this statement during Human Rights Week, “Environmental hazards caused by increasingly drastic climate patterns include more intense and frequent wildfires, destructive erosion, and aberrant flooding and water patterns. In the wake of a catastrophe, people are often faced with the choice to either move away or rebuild from scratch. Those with adequate resources are able to rebuild and adapt, but the disenfranchised are usually displaced. Forced migration and houselessness are common byproducts of natural disaster, and increasingly relevant given changing climate trends. Additionally, houselessness can take on various different forms including but not limited to: sleeping in cars, couch surfing, sleeping on the streets, etc.”<\/p>\n
