What Are Human Rights?
Human rights are rights inherent to all human beings, regardless of race, sex, nationality, ethnicity, language, religion, or any other status. Human rights include the right to life and liberty, freedom from slavery and torture, freedom of opinion and expression, the right to work and education, and many more. Everyone is entitled to these rights, without discrimination.
International Human Rights Law
International human rights law lays down the obligations of Governments to act in certain ways or to refrain from certain acts, in order to promote and protect human rights and fundamental freedoms of individuals or groups.
One of the great achievements of the United Nations is the creation of a comprehensive body of human rights law—a universal and internationally protected code to which all nations can subscribe and all people aspire. The United Nations has defined a broad range of internationally accepted rights, including civil, cultural, economic, political and social rights. It has also established mechanisms to promote and protect these rights and to assist states in carrying out their responsibilities.
The foundations of this body of law are the Charter of the United Nations and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, adopted by the General Assembly in 1945 and 1948, respectively. Since then, the United Nations has gradually expanded human rights law to encompass specific standards for women, children, persons with disabilities, minorities and other vulnerable groups, who now possess rights that protect them from discrimination that had long been common in many societies.

Human rights are basic rights and freedoms that belong to all people. They include civil/political rights like freedom of expression and religion as well as economic/social rights like adequate living standards and education. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights established core human rights values and principles in 1948. Eleanor Roosevelt and Rene Cassin played instrumental roles in drafting the declaration, which remains highly influential today.

Amesty international
Amnesty International was founded in 1961 by Peter Benenson to advocate for human rights worldwide. It uses research to highlight issues and campaigns to promote advocacy, lobbying, and action. Notable events include the release of their first prisoner of conscience in 1963 after campaigning and launching their first anti-torture campaign in 1972. Amnesty receives funding from individual donors around the world and does not accept funds from governments or political groups. They utilize their website, blogs, mobile apps, newsletters, and social media to communicate their work and build partner networks to raise awareness of human rights issues.
Are NGOs and the UN natural allies?
The document discusses the relationship between human rights NGOs and the UN. It outlines how NGOs have developed since WWII to promote human rights through education, standard-setting, monitoring, and enforcement. While the UN charter enabled more collaboration, the Helsinki Accords showed NGOs could also successfully lobby states internationally without UN involvement. NGOs generally have member-based structures and pursue goals like the anti-torture campaign through insider tactics, naming/shaming, and circulating reports. However, the UN provides both opportunities for influence but also limitations as NGOs must rely on other actors and face bureaucracy.

Human trafficking is defined as illegally transporting people for forced labor or sexual exploitation. It is estimated that 30 million people worldwide are victims of human trafficking. The two main types are sex trafficking, which is transporting people for sexual exploitation, and labor trafficking, which uses force, fraud, or coercion to make people perform labor or services. Many organizations are working to educate people and implement plans to reduce human trafficking victims, but it remains one of the most prominent international crimes.
