#AB50for50
Working together for human rights in Alberta
2023 marks 50 years since the Commission's establishment in 1973. To commemorate this significant anniversary, the Commission has launched the #AB50for50 campaign.
We all play a role in reducing discrimination and upholding human rights in Alberta. Together with other organizations in the province, the Commission hopes to inspire Albertans to take action to create a culture of human rights.
The #AB50for50 campaign encourages Albertans to challenge themselves and others to spend 50 minutes learning more about human rights or supporting a human rights organization during the 50th anniversary year.
The possibilities are endless to get involved in the campaign. Consider engaging in human rights topics by:
- Reading a book
- Watching a documentary or film
- Volunteering at a local organization that promotes human rights causes
- Attending a conference or webinar
- Hosting a fundraise for a human rights cause
- Listening to a podcast
- Taking a course
- Hosting a human rights event at your school
- Reading a report
- Listening to a TED Talk or lecture
- Attending a human rights workshop
- Learning about the work of a human rights organization
- Speaking with family and friends
No action is too small. Whatever human rights activity you decide to take on, let us know by using the hashtag #AB50for50 on social media and sharing how you'll be advancing human rights in Alberta throughout 2023!
We've compiled the following list of Alberta-area human rights resources, events, and much more so you can easily find an activity to participate in. Know about a human rights initiative we've missed? Let us know by emailing
