We, the citizens of UN member states, in this year of the 60th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, adopted and proclaimed by the UN General Assembly resolution 217 A (III) of 10 December 1948,
    

Recalling that:    

The Universal Declaration is a common standard of achievement for all peoples and all Nations,   

Bearing in mind that:

Human rights, dignity, freedom, equality, solidarity and justice constitute the spiritual and moral patrimony on which the union of Nations is based,   

Stress that:  

Proper consideration must be given to 
  

1. The right to life of every human being, from conception to natural death, each child having the right to be conceived, born and educated within the family, based on marriage between a woman and a man, the family being the natural and fundamental group unit of society,

2. The right of every child to be educated by his or her parents, who have a prior and fundamental right to choose the kind of education that shall be given to their children.

Therefore, we call upon:    

All governments to interpret the Universal Declaration of Human Rights properly such that: 
   

Everyone has the right to life, liberty and security of person (Article 3)
 
Men and women of full age, without any limitation due to race, nationality or religion, have the right to marry and to found a family (Article 16). 
  
The family is the natural and fundamental group unit of society and is entitled to protection by society and the State (Article 16).
  
Motherhood and childhood are entitled to special care and assistance (Article 25). 
   
Parents have a prior right to choose the kind of education that shall be given to their children (Article 26).
