HUMAN RIGHTS
 INTRODUCTION   TO HUMAN
  RIGHTS
 DEFENITION OF HUMAN RIGHTS
 EVOLUTION OF HUMAN RIGHTS
 CLASSIFICATION OF HUMAN
  RIGHTS
    Human rights are fundamental to the stability
    and development of countries all around the
    world. Great emphasis has been placed on
    international conventions and their
    implementation in order to ensure adherence to
    a universal standard of acceptability.
   With the advent of globalization and the
    introduction of new technology, these principles
    gain importance not only in protecting human
    beings from the ill-effects of change but also in
    ensuring that all are allowed a share of the
    benefits.
   However the efficancy of the mechanisms in
    place today has been questioned in the light of
    blatant human rights violations and disregard for
    basic human dignity in nearly all countries in one
    or more forms.

   In many cases, those who are to blame cannot be
    brought to book because of political
    considerations, power equations etc. When such
    violations are allowed to go unchecked, they
    often increase in frequency and intensity usually
    because perpetrators feel that they enjoy
    immunity from punishment.
   Human rights are the rights a person has
    simply because he or she is a human being

   Human Rights are the basic entitlements to
    be met for individuals to live with dignity
   Human dignity

   Universality

    (1948)

   The International Covenant on Economic,
    Social and Cultural Rights (1966)

   The International Covenant on Civil and
    Political Rights (1966)
   On December 10, 1948

       the United Nations
     adopted and proclaimed
    the Universal Declaration
        of Human Rights

   Social Rights

    such as physical or mental disability, gender,
    religion, race, national origin, age, status as a
    member of the uniformed services, sexual
    orientation, or gender identity.
   Individual rights such as privacy, the
    freedoms of thought and conscience, speech
    and expression, religion, the press, and
    movement.
   Political rights include natural justice
    (procedural fairness) in law, such as the
    rights of the accused, including the right to a
    fair trial;due process;
   the right to seek redress or a legal remedy;
   rights of participation in civil society and
    politics such as freedom of association
    the right to assemble, the right to petition,
    the right of self-defense, and the right to
    vote.
   Economic, social and cultural rights are socio-
    economic human rights, such as the right to
    education, right to housing, right to adequate
    standard of living and the right to health.
    Economic, social and cultural rights are
    recognized and protected in international and
    regional human rights instruments.
    Member states have a legal obligation to
    respect, protect and fullfil economic, social and
    cultural rights and are expected to take
    "progressive action" towards their fullfilment.
