What is the Universal Declaration of Human Rights? - Know Your Rights

Do you know your rights under your constitution of the nation? Have you ever evaluated your rights? If not, how you will follow the legal course to address the problems arising? Very few countries are serious about promoting the right to education for people to help you know your rights. Have you tried to know that the right to good food and the right to basic education is covered in your Universal Declaration of Human Rights? Being a student of the Post-Graduate Diploma in Human Rights, have attempted to know your rights?

On December 10, 1948, the United Nations General Assembly adopted and proclaimed the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. It aims to promote respect for these rights and freedoms and their universal recognition and observance, both among the peoples of Member States themselves and among the peoples of territories under their jurisdiction. It is applicable to all UN member states, which are now almost all countries of the world. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights was not originally designed to be legally binding, but it became legally binding as customary law of the individual man. It lists the rights of your human beings in the world, called articles 30.

Do you know how many people in the world are entitled to these rights? Do you know how those rights are accepted by the law of your country? Most UN member states have completed the paper required to accept these rights and to punish those who violate it. But the practical spirit is lacking, even in developed countries. Do you know that the empowerment of social justice is missing in the world? Large companies are exploiting your rights and cause an imbalance in the distribution of wealth and pollution of the global environment. Do you know that good food and housing is still denied to most people in the world? Do you know that the right to basic education is still denied to children in the world? Many are not even aware of this right.

Have you tried to know that the right to good food and accommodation is included in your Universal Declaration of Human Rights? Have you ever tried to know that the right to basic education is covered in your Universal Declaration of Human Rights? Have you ever tried to know that freedom of expression is within your rights? Have you ever tried to know that the right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion is included in your rights universal? Have you ever tried to know that you are fully aware and support the human rights of all human beings in the world? If human rights are followed with honesty, peace in human life in the world is already achieved? It is my perception.
