2006 Human Rights
Award Dinner

Cocktail Reception at 6 pm
Dinner & Award Ceremony at 7:15 pm
Pier Sixty, Chelsea Piers,
New York City
Freedom and dignity are not privileges; they are the birthright of every
person. Justice and fairness are not ideals; they are the linchpins of a
civilized society. Unfortunately, those rights are not given to us
freely. Unfortunately, they must be won by men and women of courage.
Every day, all over the world, thousands of individuals – some of them
famous, many more anonymous – exhibit extraordinary courage in the
pursuit of our common birthright. Every year, Human Rights First
presents its annual Human Rights Award to honor the work of these
extraordinary individuals.
