At Glen Valley Hospice, we are deeply committed to these values and strive to embody them in every aspect of our care.
The Importance of World Day for International Justice
World Day for International Justice, also known as International Justice Day, commemorates the adoption of the Rome Statute on July 17, 1998, which established the International Criminal Court (ICC). This day is a powerful reminder of the ongoing efforts needed to protect human rights and uphold justice worldwide.
