Human Rights

Human Rights refer to the basic rights and freedoms that belong to every individual, regardless of nationality, sex, ethnicity, religion, or any other status. These rights are inherent to all humans and are often enshrined in laws and international agreements. Human rights encompass a wide range of protections and entitlements, including the right to life, liberty, and security; freedom of expression and assembly; the right to a fair trial; and the right to education and work.

They serve to ensure dignity, equality, and respect for all people and provide a framework for justice, social progress, and peace. Human rights are grounded in international norms, such as the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which was adopted by the United Nations General Assembly in 1948. These rights are universal, indivisible, and interdependent, meaning that the violation of one right can affect the realization of others. Protecting human rights is essential for promoting the well-being of individuals and societies, and it is the responsibility of governments and institutions to uphold these rights and hold violators accountable.
