Hobbies and Human Rights in an Workshop Organized by ASCETIS Piatra-Neamt Romania

The Association for Science , Culture , Ecology , Youth and Social Integration organized yesterday ,the 10th of  December  an workshop dedicated to The International Day of Human Rights .

 The title of the workshop was ,,Music and Communication"  and the  discussions were around the theme  ,,Hobbies and Human Rights "



 At the workshop participated 50 students from ,,Gheorghe Cartianu"  Technical College and 10 teachers .


The students and the teachers enjoyed the activity and found inspiration for new hobbies .











We also had a special guest from Japan , mr. USHI YAMA SUSUMU , Japanese, rock musician, ,,pilgrim, hitchhiker" how he is calling himself . 
  

 Ushi traveled in 64 countries with the help of the people he met and he still wants to go forward to accomplish his dream that is to visit  and sing  all over the world .
Singing and traveling are  hobbies for him .


We discovered  together that the human most important values are protected by the Universal  Declaration of Human Rights .


"Article 19.
Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers."
,,Article 27.
Everyone has the right freely to participate in the cultural life of the community, to enjoy the arts and to share in scientific advancement and its benefits.
 Everyone has the right to the protection of the moral and material interests resulting from any scientific, literary or artistic production of which he is the author."





Practicing hobbies is a human right .

''Article 26.
Everyone has the right to education. Education shall be free, at least in the elementary and fundamental stages. Elementary education shall be compulsory. Technical and professional education shall be made generally available and higher education shall be equally accessible to all on the basis of merit.
  Education shall be directed to the full development of the human personality and to the strengthening of respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms. It shall promote understanding, tolerance and friendship among all nations, racial or religious groups, and shall further the activities of the United Nations for the maintenance of peace."






We had invited 1 TV and ,,Ziar" from Piatra Neamt to spread the information .
