Hint:
The Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) is a milestone in the history of human rights. Organized by representatives of various legal and cultural backgrounds from all regions of the world, the Declaration was adopted by the United Nations General Assembly in Paris on 10 December 1948 by resolution of the General Assembly.

Complete step by step solution:
 Human Rights Day is celebrated annually around the world on 10 December each year. The day was chosen to honor the adoption and declaration of the United Nations General Assembly, December 10, 1948, of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR), the first call for human rights in the world and one of the first great achievements of the United Nations. The official launch of Human Rights Day took place at the 31st Millennium General Assembly on 4 December 1950, when the General Assembly announced a resolution of 423, inviting all member states and any other interested parties to celebrate this day as it deems fit. The day is often marked by high-profile political conferences and meetings and cultural events and exhibitions dealing with human rights issues. In addition, it is traditionally the 10th of December when the United Nations five-year award for Human Rights and the Nobel Peace Prize is awarded. Many government and non-governmental organizations working in the field of human rights are also organizing special events to commemorate the day, as do many civil and social organizations.

Hence, the correct answer is option A.

Note:
The official launch of Human Rights Day since 1950, after the General Assembly passed a resolution of 423 inviting all countries and interested parties to adopt 10 December each year as Human Rights Day. The popularity of the day can be illustrated by the fact that the commemorative Human Rights Day stamp, issued by the United Nations Postal Administration in 1952, received about 200,000 earlier orders.
