Welcome - Canadian Museum for Human Rights
Executive apology
The Museum's executive team has issued an apology for having allowed LGBTQ2+ content to be excluded from some school programs. This practice was a betrayal of trust and a failure to live up to our central conviction that all human beings are born equal in dignity and rights.
