International Day for Tolerance As an international business, who values the diversity of all our stakeholders, SAF-HOLLAND embraces the chance to support International Day for Tolerance on 16 November. “Tolerance is respect, acceptance and appreciation of the rich diversity of our world's cultures, our forms of expression and ways of being human." UNESCO's 1995 Declaration of Principles on Tolerance. The Declaration of Principles on Tolerance affirms that tolerance is neither indulgence nor indifference. It is respect and appreciation of the rich variety of our world's cultures, our forms of expression and ways of being human. Tolerance recognizes the universal human rights and fundamental freedoms of others. People are naturally diverse; only tolerance can ensure the survival of mixed communities in every region of the globe. #safholland #internationaldayfortolerance
