Our message

Human Rights Day is observed every year on 10 December to commemorate adoption of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) by the United Nations General Assembly in 1948. The principles enshrined in this milestone document are as relevant today as they were in more than seven decades ago.

This year, Human Rights Day will be celebrated under the theme Our Rights, Our Future, Right Now. This theme is a call to acknowledge the importance and relevance of human rights in our everyday lives. AngloGold Ashanti joins the international community as it celebrates Human Rights Day 2024 by recommitting to the upholding human rights across our organization and to focusing on the role of human rights as a transformative force for good.

AngloGold Ashanti is committed to respecting and upholding the fundamental rights laid out in the declaration and our human rights framework is aligned with the United Nations Guiding Principles (UNGPs) and other international initiatives, including the United Nations Global Compact and the Voluntary Principles on Security and Human Rights. We support the vision of a world where everyone can enjoy their universal rights and where business plays its part in upholding these rights. Our commitment is extended to ensuring that human rights are respected by all those who work with our company. We do this through the promotion, adoption and monitoring of human rights among our suppliers and communities.
