This October, 128 leading experts in the fields of human rights and equality from 44 countries launched a landmark attempt to build on the epochal 1948 UN declaration to establish universal human equality. We did so by launching a “Declaration on Principles of Equality” – a declaration that builds on its historical precursor to establish, for the first time ever, general legal principles that define equality as a basic human right.
今年10月， 来自44个国家的128名人权和平等领域的著名专家，开展了一项里程碑式工作，我们要在1948年联合国具有划时代意义的声明的基础上，建立普遍的人类平等。我们通过颁布“平等原则的宣言”来开展这项工作。这项基于其历史基础之上的宣言，有史以来第一次建立了普遍的法律原则，把平等界定为一项基本人权。
