Human rights and social justice are two fundamental pillars of the work of the Márquez Foundation, reflecting its commitment to promoting a more just, equal and respectful society of human dignity. These concepts are intertwined in its mission to address inequalities, fight discrimination and ensure that all individuals fully enjoy their fundamental rights.

*Dignity and Equality:* Human rights are inherent to all people by the simple fact of being human. These rights, such as the right to life, liberty, equality and non-discrimination, are intended to protect the dignity and intrinsic value of each individual.

*Universality and Applicability:* Human rights are universal, meaning that they apply at all times and in all places, regardless of nationality, gender, religion, sexual orientation or any other personal characteristic. The Foundation is committed to promoting and defending this universality.

*Promotion and Protection:* The foundation works to raise public awareness of human rights by providing education and resources so that people know their rights and how to defend them. It can also intervene in cases of human rights violations, seeking justice and redress.

*Equity and Opportunity:* Social justice focuses on creating a society where all people have equal opportunities, regardless of their socioeconomic background, gender, race, sexual orientation, or other characteristics. The foundation advocates for policies and actions that reduce inequality gaps and promote equity.

*Access to Resources and Services:* To achieve social justice, it is essential to ensure that all people have access to basic resources such as health care, quality education, decent housing, and employment. The foundation can work in collaboration with other organizations to provide these resources to those who need them most.

*Inclusion and Diversity:* Social justice involves celebrating and respecting the diversity of society. The Foundation promotes a culture of inclusion and collaboration that values the voices and perspectives of all people, regardless of their differences.

*Fighting Discrimination:* The foundation is committed to tackling discrimination in all its forms, as it is a violation of human rights and a barrier to social justice. It works to eliminate prejudices and stereotypes that perpetuate discrimination.

*Empowerment of Vulnerable Groups:* The foundation pays special attention to vulnerable groups, such as ethnic minorities, people with disabilities and the marginalized, providing them with support and resources so that they can fully exercise their rights and reach their full potential.

*Advocacy and Policy Change:* The foundation works closely with legislators and decision-makers to promote policies and laws that support human rights and social justice. This may include promoting gender equality policies, anti-discrimination laws and measures to address poverty and social exclusion.
