WHAT ARE HUMAN RIGHTS?
Human rights are the rights and freedoms that we all have.
• Some human rights are based on our physical needs. The right to life. To food. To shelter.
• Other human rights protect us. The right to be free from torture, cruel treatment and abuse.
• Human rights are also there to ensure we develop to our fullest potential. The right to education. To work. To participate in your community.
Everybody has human rights. It doesn’t matter who you are, where you come from, what language you speak or what religion you belong to. You have a duty to respect the rights of others, just as they have a duty to respect yours. Nobody can take your rights away. (INALIENABLE / INHERENT)

HOW IMPORTANT ARE HUMAN RIGHTS?
A Moral Vision of Human NatureHuman Rights set the limits and requirements of social (especially state) action. But the state and society, guided by human rights, play a major role in realizing that “nature.” When human rights claims bring legal and political practice into lines with their demands, they create a person in line with a moral vision. (Donnelly, 2003)
