Together, these human rights sites are utilized by 1 million visitors each year. Materials available online include:
■ What are Human Rights? booklet
■ The Story of Human Rights booklet
■ “30 Rights, 30 Ads” public service announcements
■ The Story of Human Rights documentary

The YHRI and UHR digital curriculums include lesson plans and resources. Any teacher may enroll online and create a virtual classroom in which to conduct a full education program, with all student assignments performed directly on site and every element transformed into downloadable applications for mobile devices.
As with UHR and YHRI’s published materials, these online resources are all available at no charge.
