Human Rights are the basic rights and freedoms that belong to every person in the world, simply because they are human. They are universal, inalienable, and indivisible—meaning they apply to all people, cannot be taken away, and are equally important.
Human Rights protect dignity, promote equality, and ensure freedom for all. They form the foundation of justice, peace, and democracy worldwide.
What are Human Rights?
Human Rights are rights we are all entitled to, regardless of nationality, race, gender, religion, or background. They include:
⚖️ Civil & Political Rights → Freedom of speech, right to vote, right to equality before law.
🌱 Economic, Social & Cultural Rights → Right to education, healthcare, work, and social security.
🌍 Collective Rights → Right to development, right to a healthy environment, right to self-determination.
Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR)
In 1948, the United Nations adopted the UDHR, a milestone document that defines 30 fundamental rights. These rights include:
Right to life, liberty, and security
Freedom from torture, slavery, and discrimination
Right to education and work
Right to participate in government
Right to freedom of thought, conscience, and religion
👉 The UDHR is the foundation for all modern human rights laws and treaties.
Core Principles of Human Rights
Every human right is based on key principles:

Equality & Non-Discrimination: No one should face discrimination based on race, caste, gender, or beliefs.
Indivisibility: All rights—civil, political, social, cultural, economic—are equally important.
Participation & Inclusion: Every person has the right to be heard.
Accountability: Governments and institutions must protect and uphold rights.
